The Foxit eSlick reader was originally announced back in mid-December of last year, and since then it seems to have blended into the ever growing collection of available ebook readers. That said, the eSlick was just recently given a firmware update, and a nice one at that.

And that update is offering at least one really nice addition—the support for the EPUB and eReader formats.

So far, Foxit has not yet begun shipping any new units with the updated firmware, but it is believed that the next round of eSlick readers to ship will do so with the updated firmware. Current users can also download and update by visiting the Foxit Software website.

Additionally, the new firmware has also added a touch keyboard that will allow readers to unlock files that are password protected.
