Brother SV-70 document viewer

Most new products released are often better versions of their predecessors, but Brother of Japan takes the road less traveled with the SV-70 document viewer which is a lesser version of the SV-100B. It shares most of the same features as its technologically superior sibling save for Bluetooth 2.0 +EDR connectivity and carrying half the onboard memory, which means it can only store 500 pages instead of the usual 1,000. Pricing details have yet to be released, but it will roll out that February 20th in Japan.
