Watch That Tiny $74 1.5GHz Android-Powered Thumb-Puter In Action Here’s the first hands-on video with the new Pixel Qi LCD screen, a panel that touts a two-mode, high-resolution LCD display—one mode being “transflective,” so that it swaps backlight for natural light, requires less energy and is easier on the eyes—LCD’s answer to E-Ink.
PVI, the company thought to make the big sheet of e-paper found in the Kindle DX, has revealed two interesting pieces of intel to DigiTimes.
The Foxit eSlick reader, manufactured by the same folks that build the Kindle for Amazon, has finally made its way to market. It looks pretty good, considering that it’s probably the cheapest e-ink reader available.
Global publishing giant Hearst, the name behind newspapers like the San Francisco Chronicle and magazines like Esquire and Popular Mechanics, is planning a wireless e-reader with a large screen.
Next Monday, we’ll probably see a new Kindle. But you know what? It won’t feature a 24-inch screen that’s ready to out-paper a newspaper.
French designer Julien Bergignat’s Tima Watch concept has an actual basis in reality, and is something you may actually wear to places more upscale than Red Lobster.
Samsung has unveiled an ultra-thin ‘flapping’ OLED screen at FPD International 2008, demonstrating the flexibility of the display by letting it bend and flutter in the wind. At a paper-thin .05mm, the 4-inch screen is still able to create an image of 480×272 pixels, with a 100,000:1 contrast ratio and 100% reproduction of the NTSC colour gamut, which is in line with most new flat panel screens on the market. If this all sounds familiar, it’s because Sony made a lot of the same claims a few weeks ago — but they didn’t have the balls to let their screen go all flippy-floppy in public.
I was immediately drawn to this E-Ink mobile phone concept by Anthony Reed—probably because it’s so shiny. And for a moment, I was completely sold. That was, until I realised that the buttons were stagnant, not necessarily designed for constantly altered layouts but instead resembling any old run of the mill handset. Still, the concept really is quite shiny and it’s only time before e-inks get faster refresh times. So it’s worth at least a moment of reflection as to the future of gadget design before we turn back to our LG Shines and Blackberries. [Anthony Reed via Yanko Design]
