Those new pictures from Pitchfork look much more like what I was expecting from a device.

It seems a bit lack luster, just like every other display with jagged letters, until one realises that the screen is actually *BENDING* while still displaying. Patently phenomenal.

@ Alex--
There's the chance that the Readius will have a short battery life, but the reviewer kept mentioning it as a mobile phone. No mobile really last for more than a day with use. Besides, if the Polymer Vision kids are smart enough, they will but a little on/off switch or script for whatever radio-dealy it has inside. My Treo has that option for Bluetooth, so I cannot imagine that it is so difficult to implement.
