Plastic Logic, a spin-off company from the Cambridge University’s Cavendish Laboratory, has recently released its design of a future electronic newspaper reader. This lightweight plastic screen copies the appearance, but not the feel, of a printed newspaper. This electronic paper technology was pioneered by the E-Ink Corporation and is used in the current generation Sony eReader and Amazon.com’s Kindle. Plastic Logic’s device, yet to be named, has a highly legible black-and-white display and a screen more than twice as large compared to current versions available on the market
