Fuji-Xerox jumps on the color e-paper bandwagon
Lack of color in e-paper is still a sore point for many users. Now there is a new light on the horizon, as Japanese electronics giant Fuji-Xerox has displayed a prototype of electronic paper called "Photo-Addressable Electronic Paper." It uses a cholesteric liquid crystal composition (like Fujitsu Frontec's FLEPia) in combination with an organic photoconductor. Among the strenghts of this e-paper is high-speed imaging, thin and flexible form factors, non-volatility, image stability against bending, a wide viewing angle, high resolution, and - you may have already guessed it - color.

So, Fuji-Xerox is betting on (a new version of) LCD over e-ink, eh? Let the games begin!

I think a big breakthrough will be a display that isn't so fragile. Maybe that's the biggest benefit of a flexible display?
