Two years ago翻譯社 Fujitsu announced that it had come up with the world's first film substrate-based bendable color electronic paper featuring image memory function (snappy name, fellas). Well, now they've made something to put it in: The FLEPia (that's a bit better, but I'm still not convinced). it comes in two sizes, A4 (480 grams) and A5 (320 grams) and both are just 12mm thick.
“FLEPia” equips the Japanese version of Windows®CE5.0 by Microsoft Corporation. Web browser and e-mail are available. Because “FLEPia” can also display data of variety of applications by Microsoft Corporation such as Microsoft Word or Microsoft Excel, referring of a document or an attachment of e-mail is available. A software keyboard and a touch-pen enable to input short sentence for e-mail.
