The magic plastic e readers

BBC News - Plastic Logic e-reader aims to challenge Kindle

The Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas is apparently packed full of new e-readers this year, and the flexible plastic screen one shown in the video at the above link does look very cool, except that its odd squarish dimensions (while great for a genuine newspaper reading experience) looks a tad too large to safely carry in your briefcase.

The Skiff reader looks like the nearest rival to Plastic Logic, but no one knows how much it will cost.

And cost is a pretty significant issue.
