Looks like Readius will be released after all


We recently reported that the Readius may receive a second chance since Polymer Vision went bankrupt, and it looks like it will come to pass.

Wistron is apparently planning to release a flexible e-paper display that is similar to the Readius sometime in 2010. We don’t know the exact date, and we also don’t know whether this e-paper device will feature the Bluetooth, tri-band GSM/EDGE, dual-band HSDPA, microSD expansion and SMS capabilties of the original plan for the Readius. We shall see.

Polymer Vision’s Readius to get new life?

It has been a while since we covered the Readius from Polymer Vision. The Readius was supposed to be a terrific portable e-reader/mobile phone with a retracting flexible screen, but sadly, Polymer Vision went bankrupt.

But it is the end? It probably is only the beginning as Wistron made a bid for the company over the summer, and approved of an 18 million investment. Also, Polymer Vision is acting as a spin-off of Acer as of September. Perhaps the Polymer Vision will see mass-marketing one day.

Wistron Firstbook

Here is a great new device that techie people will love. If you are envious about the Sony Vaio users, here is an alternative mobile computing device you can consider getting. It is the Wistron Firstbook.

The Wistron Firstbook will have the ARM Snapdragon processor running within, and also holds the distinction of being the first Linux-based netbook. The Firstbook shares some resemblance to a Sony Vaio P and features the following:

  • integrated 3G WWAN connectivity
  • 11.1″ widescreen display
  • Bluetooth
  • Wi-Fi support

It remains to be seen though if the Wistron Snapdragon netbook will make it to the masses, or is just a demonstration platform for ARM.
