Earlier this year, I did an article on the very cool Philips Readius E-Reader With Rollable Display. The Readius pocket electronic document reader is the first device with a display that unrolls to a greater size than the compact form of the device. The monochrome, 5-inch QVGA (320 pixels x 240 pixels) display provides paper-like viewing with a high contrast ratio for reading-intensive applications, with four gray levels. The display should be suitable for reading text, graphics, and electronic maps.
However, when I came across this video on YouTube, I thought I'd share it. This is a very futuristic device.
