EInk and Sony create new Joint Venture for E-Notebooks
Linfiny is the name of the new company

Quote:
The e-notebook products being developed by Linfiny will come with pen-writing functionality and will target professional and educational markets, Ko said, noting that the joint venture will also offer integrated services to help clients accelerate product developments.

Linfiny will also look for replacement markets for its e-notebook products in the technology, legal, financial and medical care sectors where demand for electronic documents and digital search is strong, Ko added.
They wont be manufacturing themselves, instead focusing on development for other clients.

Quote:
E-paper product vendors in China, Europe, Japan and the US will gradually roll out new e-notebook products in the second half of 2017, further expanding the market, Ko said.

Searching for "linfiny digitimes" on DuckDuckGo brings up a link for me that doesn't run into the paywall.

Based on the pictures, I think by notebook, they mean tablet form factor, not laptop form factor.

sorry about the paywall link. when i read it before posting i clicked through to it from my newsfeed and didnt hit the paywall. maybe it lets you read once from a news aggregator before the wall goes up or something

I asked E-ink. They meant tablets, not laptops.
