The Flexible E-Book Reader
Yesterday, Plastic Logic has launched a new flexible electronic book reader, which uses the same technology as the Sony reader and the Amazon Kindle.The main difference in this new e-book reader is that it is flexible, just like a real book, you could roll and flip it, in normal way of course. It is also about 2.5 times bigger than the Amazon Kindle measuring 8.5 x 11 inches.The Plastic Logic e-book reader features built in WiFi and support for Microsoft Office documents and Adobe PDF documents.
Another interesting difference between this new flexible e-book reader and the offerings from Amazon and Sony is the battery life, according to Plastic Logic the battery will last for days and not hours. We could easily adjust the resolution and contrast so we can comfort read it just like a real book.
It is expected to go on sale in 2009, there is no word on pricing as yet.
