Good news for all e-book lovers. Matsushita demonstrated at the
Digital Publishing Fair 2005 in Tokyo last week the next generation of its
Sigma e-book reader.
According to
eBookSpot, the new Sigma reader, which is sold under the Panasonic brand, will come with only one screen panel instead of two, and it will be powered with a color LCD display. Previous models used monochrome LCDs based on
Kent Displays' Cholesteric Technology (chLCD). No information on price and date of availability yet.
