According to Fujitsu its newly developed e-paper features an image memory function that enables “continuous display of the same image without the need for electricity”, although it does require a smidge of power to switch images. Plus, the images don’t warp or lose quality when the e-paper is bent or rolled up."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/epaper_250-1.jpg" /><br /><br />Technology like this is an important step towards evolving the form factor of many of today's digital media devices. Very cool to see this first step - I can imagine some very interesting uses two or three generations down the line.
