Electronic Paper Reader (Skiff Reader)

It's not just about e-books anymore, Newspapers and magazines can also be accessed through an e-reader now. The e-reading company Skiff launched an electronic reader called the Skiff Reader. It's about 1/4 of an inch thick. With 1200x1600 pixel and 11.5-inch screen, it is the current largest and highest-resolution consumer e-reading display. This e-reader utilizes a thin, flexible sheet of stainless steel foil. 

The Skiff Reader is optimized for newspapers and magazines. The company is also working on supporting the design qualities of the publications such as the layout, graphics, and typography so that it can retain its look on the screen. Users can be connected through WiFi.

The Skiff Reader should be available online, and through US Sprint dealers, later this year. There’s still no word on price. Even if you don’t buy the reader, Skiff is working on making its digital store and client software accessible to a variety of other devices, including smartphones.
