Well doesn't that look impressive? A big 'ol 19-inch electronic ink display that appears to emulate your father's newspaper. No doubt, this massive Metal-Foil e-paper prototype from LG Display is impressive at this size (just 0.3-mm thin and 250×400mm -- about the same size as a 297×420-mm sheet of A3) and weight (130 grams). Hell, we were already impressed with the flexible 11.5-inch panel (http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/lg-display-showcases-11-5-inch-flexible-e-paper/) from LG Display found in (http://www.engadget.com/photos/skiff-reader-press-shots/2577303) the Skiff Reader. However, like the rigid Skiff Reader, a flexible panel doesn't mean that we'll be seeing a flexible e-reader. In fact, chances are we won't after the manufacturer gets through adding a touchscreen overlay, application processor, and radio chipset. Let's hope for a surprise though, whenever these panels do make it out for mass production... assuming anyone still cares (http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/09/the-e-reader-story-of-ces-2010/) about monochrome E Ink displays by then.LG Display's 19-inch E Ink display plays loose with the truth (http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/15/lg-displays-19-inch-e-ink-display-plays-loose-with-the-truth/) originally appeared on Engadget (http://www.engadget.com) on Fri, 15 Jan 2010 08:14:00 EST.
