E3 2006 Reader

The E3 2006 version of the RVT-R Reader is notable for using the black E3 2005 Revolution Case, as well as being exceedingly elusive with little information about it being known. Its existence is known through it being mentioned in various SDK documents, which also specify that its serial number format is as follows: RTPAB2xxx. It is possible that this system contains one of the Pre-Production Boards mentioned in OSGetConsoleType.
