Electronic Paper, epaper, eInk… whatever you want to call it. It is cool. This is the stuff you always see in futuristic movies. A digital image displayed on something as small as a piece of paper. It is still in the developmental stages as of right now, but there have already been a few companies that have taken advantage of E Ink Corporation’s technology.

The coolest thing I have seen done with it so far is Seiko’s E-Paper Watch:

Unfortunetly, only 500 of these have been made and they will cost over $2000.

They have also implemented E-Paper into such things like a Lexar JumpDrive:

A Weather Wizard:

A Sony Reader:

And several others.

Philips and Polymer Vision have created a Rollable epaper device.

In the future, they say that the device will have animation and a full color display. Here is a future vision of their “Dream Phone”:
