"out of my mind!"

So the future of paper is coming. The western and first world will recieve all the information they need to advance in a digital format and the third world, as part of an ecological clamp down, will be punished for reading books made of paper.

I know I’m a cynic, but I like to hedge my bets on reality.

Anyway, here’s one of the first products on the market and I’m excited.

Plastic Logic\’s first e-book

Here’s what they have to say on their website http://www.plasticlogic.com/product.html

Another big player is e-ink.  E-ink provide starter kits for keen inventors http://www.eink.com/kits/index.html

If you think they’ve got what it takes to make the next big thing, then this might be your starting point.

Esquire magazine recently decided to put some e-ink in their centenery issue (or some other birthday) to prove what technology is doing to their industry. So here you can see the first e-paper to be sold in the consumer market place and to that effect you can see some psycho’s efforts at destroying it.
