Seiko Epson unveiled a flexible 200 ppi e-paper display at the SID 2005 (http://www.sid.org/). The display, which hasn't been actually displayed but only shown in a presentation, is based on E Ink's electrophoretic paper technology and uses Seiko's advanced display manufacturing and electronic circuitry techniques. Only a month ago Seiko demonstrated (http://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=3805) a curved wristwatch incorporating the same technology.

Tech-On is quoting (http://techon.nikkeibp.co.jp/english/NEWS_EN/20050530/105227/) Seiko saying that the company "aims to commercialize the technology within 1-2 years" targeting such markets as handheld products.

Considering for how long the Sony Librie has been on the market, it surprises me that it takes them yet another 1-2 years to commercialize e-paper. Perhaps it will come in color then?
