    E Ink and Epson develop 300 dpi electronic paper device 

    Epson and E Ink announced the joint development of a 9.7-inch 300-dpi electronic paper device with a resolution way higher than that of existing e-readers.

    The 300-dpi display will support 2,400 x 1,650 pixels, promising to deliver “razor-sharp text and images”, compared with the 160 dpi and 600 x 800 resolution of existing readers such as Barnes & Noble’s Nook and the Amazon Kindle. And they say that, despite the higher resolution, readers will be able to turn pages faster than on existing devices.

    E Ink will manufacture, sell and support the newly developed 300-dpi ePaper displays. Epson will manufacture, sell and support a high-resolution, high-speed display controller platform optimized for controlling E Ink’s high-resolution display.

    Bookeen displays smooth video playback on eInk Panel 

    The Bookeen R&D team is working on overdrive these days trying to regain some prominence in the e-reader arena. Most of their current gen e-readers are expensive and rather outdated compared to the low price and value of the Kindle, Nook, Kobo, and others. Today in an attempt to stay relevant with the times, they showed off a new e-ink panel that plays high frame rate video!

    The current prototype utilizes e-Ink Holdings Pearl based screen technology. It also is running on a solid Intel Cortex A8 processor. You will notice from the video that the refresh rate is the fastest we have ever seen in an e-ink display.

    Although we will not see this technology in an e-reader anytime soon, Bookeen informed us that this video destroys the battery life and will only give you 3 or 4 hours of video playing.
