Sony are releasing some new pretty cool touchscreen based E-Ink readers. Here I show you the interface a bit. It seems to work quite alright. All that’s needed now is that they release an unlocked HSDPA and WiFi version runing something like Google Android to add features and basic but optimized Internet text content reading features.

Hanvon Touchscreen E-Book

Hanvon shows a 5″ touchscreen E-Ink E-Book reader device. The size of the screen I think could be perfect for the device to be pocketable, if they can just remove all the unecessary screen bezel before the release of this product. The touchscreen feature using the special stylus has also a huge potential in terms of building software features for it once the device is connected to the Internet using WiFi or HSDPA, to enable readers to collaborate online on editing texts, on commenting and building communities of handwritten annotations around texts. A USB or Bluetooth keyboard could then be connected to enter typed annotations as well.

Caro iRex Iliad e-ink e-book

Charbax — Tue, 27 Mar 2007 12:25:18 +0000

E-ink technology is awesome and it is about to replace the whole printing industry. The quality of this e-book is the same as printed text on white paper. Just imagine one sheet of paper that can load any of the worlds books digitized by Google Books, from Blogs, from online newspapers, from Wikipedia articles and other articles generated from user generated text content, as well as forum posts and more. There just needs to be some automatic selection of daily content as well as more features which this actual first generation e-ink product is missing like resume from ram and flash, pre-processing pages for faster page loading, currently there is about a second delay for pages to load and a slight delay for the WACOM magnetic touch-screen technology. it’s also based on Linux and there are online communities of third party developpers adding features to it.
