What I like about the internet, and about my kobo, is that you can find a lot of shorter paragraphs, or articles, like this forum, or on the Kobo there's 'getpocket.com'.
There you can read articles like as if it was a mini-book, usually 3 to 10 pages, and with very relative and up to date topics!
Very informative as well.
If it doesn't suit me, I continue reading anyway, because it only has a few pages; unless I totally don't deem it worth my time; then I just delete the file from my kobo.


Talking of E-ink dying,
I haven't seen a lot of plastic, bendable e-ink screens that where supposed to be display panels for commercials on store windows?

I would love to have a plastic e-ink 'screen' the size of 13" or more.

When are they going to make cheap e-ink screens, like they're doing now with solar panels made out of carbon paper?
Source for solar panel made out of carbon paper please.

Actually, the name "solar paper" is now linked to Yolk, but the chinese already for a while have been experimenting with paper and carbon to create affordable solar panels.

The e-ink screens they use for display models are bendable plastic (the kind which you use to laminate paper with), that doesn't have touch screen or a pen input.

Whenever I go out, I almost always spot at least one person with an e-ink reader. Mois.
