Newspaper to test “electronic paper”…

This is good news, someone is finally going to really try out e-ink – “Instead of buying your daily paper, from April 2006, 200 subscribers will be able to start the day by connecting a portable electronic device supplied by De Tijd to the internet and start downloading their daily paper. Updates will be automatic during the day, if subscribers have access to wireless technology.” [via] Link.

Pictured here, my hacked Sony Librie with MAKE: e-ink edition (you can make your own ebooks for e-ink devices now). The Librie’s e-ink tech is from the same company developing the newspaper reader (e-ink).
