This 6-inch screen displays black and white e-ink text and images at 800x600 pixels and can roll around a tube the circumference of a dime. If this isn't the future of print, I don't know what is. Designed and manufactured by Polymer Vision, the screen can be rolled and unrolled 25,000 times. The question, obviously, is why would you need a rollable display? Well, as ereaders become ubiquitous the need for them to be almost indestructible. I could see a day when kids get their own ereaders for the nursery a la the Diamond Age. Interestingly, Polymer Vision isn't the company of note when you think of e-ink displays so either they will license this technology or they could start taking more and more market shares from leaders like Eink.noi che viviamo in questo carcere, nella cui vita non esistono fatti ma dolore, dobbiamo misurare il tempo con i palpiti della sofferenza, e il ricordo dei momenti amari. Non abbiamo altro a cui pensare.
