According to Digitimes, Micro-Star International chairman Joseph Hsu revealed that his company is currently developing an ebook reader based around Nvidia's Tegra chip. However, MSI has run into some problems and, for that reason, the company is waiting until the first half of 2010 before it announces further details.

Tegra, already the beating heart of Microsoft's Zune HD, is pegged as the next big thing when it comes to powering MIDs and smartphones.
