Readius news blurb - for those still interested

Ive been interested in this device since I first heard about it.

Here is a blurb about the company that bought it after bankrupcy, basically that there are plans for something to be released this year.

Will see .. fyi .. they dropped the phone aspect it seems .. yea!

Readis - Ahead of its time but never produced

Quote:
However, hope is not lost. A few weeks after the bankruptcy filing, CNET News quoted Polymer Vision's president, Karl McGoldrick, as saying that the company was looking for new investors to take the product to market. And find them he did. 12 million euros later, Polymer Vision was acquired by a Taiwanese company, Wistron, in the fall of 2009. Wistron's chief of product planning, Brian Chong, recently announced that Wistron is developing a device featuring a similar Readius design with a flexible display that will launch in 2010.
First page is recap of what was, 2nd page is what might be coming this year.
