Engadget got to see a demonstration of an E Ink Mobius based 13.3" flexible digital paper display from Sony. The screen weighs just 60g and lets users take notes via an electromagnetic induction touchscreen.
At 13.3 inches, the panel is larger than your typical e-reader's, but it weighs just 60 grams. That light footprint comes courtesy of E Ink's TFT tech, which allows for larger, more rugged devices without the extra weight. The Digital Paper's form factor matches the size of a sheet of A4 paper, and the on-board digitizer lets users scrawl notes on the electromagnetic induction touchscreen. Naturally, this is just one implementation of the E Ink's display, but it's neat to see a prototype in action nonetheless.
