Kobo, the e-reader developer and e-book seller, just announced it is launching a new touchscreen E-Ink device.

The Kobo eReader Touch will feature a touchscreen keyboard and allow you to swipe between pages instead of pressing a button.

The eReader has a 6-inch screen, can display 16 levels of grayscale color, and is open to ePub and PDF file formats.

The eReader Touch will start shipping next month for $129. You can find it at Best Buy, Walmart, and Borders.
