E-Ink spotted in the wild

Just when you thought print media was turning into something passé, the boys from Esquire (USA, of course) sprung up and hit us right in the face with an e-ink panel on the front cover of their October issue.


I was in the print magazine industry for about 4 years prior to joining Lowyat.NET, and I've got to say that this is one hell of a ballsy (and not to mention, expensive) move - sure it's relatively low-tech when compared to all the snazzy stuff you get with gadgets these days, but don't forget that we're talking about a good, old fashioned, tangible magazine cover here. Unfortunately, it's hard to say if we'll ever see something like this popping up in a local bookstand any time soon, but I'm pretty sure that I'm not the only one here who wishes that it'll one day become a reality.

More information on the e-ink cover at the Esquire website here, as well video of the e-ink cover in action here.
