I was waiting for this to happen.
Juicebox shows us how cool an E-Ink device can be if not manufactured by Sony. It is small (50x56x3.7mm), has a multimedia card interface, includes a MP3 decoder, and of course features the wonderful E-Ink panel.
The great thing about this project is that it gives the schematic and source code (alas excluding the confidential sources for the E-Ink display) for
download. Btw, the smart guy behind the project,
Holly Gates, has actually worked for
E-Ink since 1998. Why on earth did they make E-Ink technology exclusive for Sony until now?
