Yeah, quite a few rags out there have already diverted at least some of their efforts to the electronic press, but according to E Ink’s Ryosuke Kuwata, the trend is set to explode in late 2009. Said VP, who is currently in charge of market development, admitted that some newspapers in Japan, America and Europe are all looking to make the move to e-paper in the not-too-distant future. He also stated that “verification tests” (trials, we presume) would be starting up “using several thousands of terminals by the end of 2008,” and that the company would “gradually shift to a specific business in the second half of 2009.” Reading the local headlines on e-paper, scooting to the market in a flying vessel and showing up to work by flipping on a hologram transmitter.
