Thomas thanks for all this information - if everything goes well 2009 looks like the year this thing really takes off - bigger displays (A4) are to my mind the critical turning point.
Please do not underestimate the role of "white space" as an aid to reading, especially of complex material, an A4 size is not just bigger, it creates typographical space as well, though A5 is best for most material (displaying two pages is a distinct virtue when reading is fast, sometimes more text per screen requires generous white space around it - cramming the margins is not always a good idea).
Big print also requires big pages.
So long as displays were rigid portability restricts size absolutely, flexible, rollable, epaper is the greatest blessing we could have. Thank you and all the best in your venture.
