This is a meant as a question about upcoming industry events rather than about a specific Astak product (trying to stay away from NDA information). I know that most of the 9.7" reading devices are waiting on the flexible screens that are coming this fall/winter since the usual glass ones are not considered feasible in that size. Will the same technology be applied to a 5" or 6" smaller screen sizes at about the same time? Or is that size on hold until the demand for the larger devices has calmed down a bit?

I think Robert addressed this topic somewhere in this thread quite a while ago, but I'm not sure where to look. And hopefully more information has been released by PVI.
