Flexible e-book reader

The Tire maker Bridgestone is thinking seriously about entering the market of the eBook Readers considering the prototypes shown in this article.   bridgestone_e_paper_flexible

Bridgestone says the prototype has a 10.7-inch-screen, is just 5.8mm thick (Kindle 2: 9.1mm) and can display color pages. The device can be bent to some extent since the circuit board and the electronic paper are flexible.

Color and flexible eReaders, awesome.

  • The Readius had a flexible (and rollable) screen. Maybe this is the first flexible color screen, though.

    Personally, if you can't roll it up, I don't care if it's a little flexible.
