Electronic newspapers nearly ready for release, Kuwata says
Posted by Liam Berkowitz on June 24, 2008 at 2:30 PM
Electronic paper technology, one of the newspaper industry's most exciting innovations, could be available to newspapers as early as 2009. Ryosuke Kuwata, vice president of E Ink Corp's Asia Pacific region, revealed today in an interview that developers are getting close to unveiling the technology.
According to Kuwata, newspaper companies have made "significant moves over the past year" toward investing in the electronic newspaper. The first commercial e-paper, he says, will be tested toward the end of 2008 and launched sometime in the second half of 2009.
Kuwata says US newspaper companies have been ahead of the game, pursuing electronic newspaper technology before Japanese companies. European papers, he says, have "just began to move."
