Anyone seen any flexible eink readers advertised yet?
Just wondering if anyone has seen any information about flexible eink readers since Readius went belly up.
I know they were taken over, and that they are suppose to have some product in the future, but I havent seen any thing in over a year. I was very interested in the readius at the time, for the flexible screen and portable size. Just not really interested in the phone portion that they were planing on. |

AFAIK the technology isn't anywhere near ready yet. I suspect this is something that won't be out for several years; color epaper has a higher priority.

Using silk to make flexible screens looks interesting.
