Look familiar? Yep. The Chinese have knocked off the Kindle, creating a device that looks just like the Kindle 2 and will be on sale in Japan for $210. The device will have a built-in cellular modem with SIM card.

The company, Peking University Founder, released no further specs nor did it explain what the hell its name means.
