Roll up Kindle??

I have a friend who just came back from INFOCOMM in Las Vegas with a rumor of a new Kindle that rolls up like a scroll. Anyone know whether there is any truth to this?

Did they "litterally" mean a Kindle... or did they just mean an eBook reader. The Readius is supposed to ship soon and it does what you describe.

Yeah, I know about the Readius but they used the word "Kindle". However they are not into mobile reading or reading for that matter. They just knew that I was. I just wondered if it were true.

Wonder if "Kindle" is becoming a generic term for an eBook reader like "Hoover" came to be used for all brands of vacuum cleaners?

Heh, yes - multiple people at work ask me about my 'Kindle', when they're asking if I still love my Cybook.
