Interesting... if they could fit that into a 7-8 inch device with an integrated cover, and move the solar cells onto the cover. Unlimited usage, color, super thin and light. Last edited by Katsunami; 10-20-2013 at 02:36 PM. |

Somehow I think that is a faked page image as I've never seen color eInk that looks that vibrant. They are always faded out. And where are the specs? What resolution? Who made the screen? it looks like a very simple device with only buttons for changing pages, and not well placed buttons either unless you want to keep both hands constantly on the device.

If it works, I might replace my Kindle KB 3G, but alas, alas, I have already said that before 2 dozen times.

You have to admit that Finland in the winter is a pretty good test for anything solar powered...

At 6 millimeters it's about 60 sheets of paper thick.
