The best of CES 2010.

I'd rather read my books off of this than e-ink

GIVE US A MIRASOL KINDLE ALREADY COME ON!!!! ITS ALMOST 2012 NOW, HOW MUCH LONGER DO WE HAVE TO WAIT???? I HATE LCD AND E-INK I CAN'T STAND THEM ANY MORE FOR READING BOOKS.

Well, to be fair to print, text comes at 600 to 1200 dpi on digital devices, as for offset-printed magazines it's roughly 1200 to 2400 dpi, so still nowhere even near. Then again first laser printers were about 240 dpi. But watching the video it's still looking good. Thanks for the 1080p m(-__- )m

This thing ought to hit the market soon in a nice inexpensive tablet.

Looks like a great update over e-ink displays and power saving and allows for video.

hey its marshall from how i met yo mama

[ecsyntric]

great. but i'm disappointed that they could only achieve 240ppi. if they had hit 350ppi we wouldn't have to worry about this at least for some time.

yellow cast... lol this dude wasnt informed that the ambient light affects the display since its actually the only kind of reflection you get out of the devide - IT IS NO-BACKLIGHT TECHNOLOGY SIR, just like e-ink and others... That's the whole point of this low-power technology. They actually add micro mirrors to each pixel or sumthin

lmao...hopefully we'll be seeing this in devices in the second half of the year" another world changing tech (better and cheaper) that will never see the light of day. Drool and move on...
