Plastic Logics Electronic Paper Prototype To Be Announced At The CES Exhibition In January 2009

We all know that according to rumours paper is out and electronic
reading is in. I'm still not sure as I love the idea of the crisp paper
between my finger tips. However if rumours are correct then this
electronic newspaper by Plastic Logic will be the way of the
future.Plastic Logic's electronic newspaper is said to be an electronic
tablet type design that will incorporate e-ink technology and be able to
download news (via wireless internet capabilities) to it's surface where
it can be read. Colour photographs are not in the cards as yet due to
e-ink only functioning in black, however, as technology marches on, this
may become a thing of the past.
The 21.5 x 28 cm electronic newspaper will be able to read Pdf's, word,
excel and powerpoint presentations as well which will make it much
easier to share information on this big screen, so to speak.

Unlike other conceptual designs that never make it past the drawing
board, this particular concept will be in prototype stage by the CES
exhibition in January, 2009. This is good news for all those news and
info freaks out there 'So who knows? Maybe by this time next year you'll
be reading TFTS from the electronic paper via an RSS feeder!
