Comments on: Mirasol v/s e-Ink: What’s The Future? http://blogkindle.com/2009/11/mirasol-vs-e-ink-what%e2%80%99s-the-future/ Daily News about Amazon's new e-book reader Tue, 09 Mar 2010 21:11:29 -0600 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.6 hourly 1 By: Ian http://blogkindle.com/2009/11/mirasol-vs-e-ink-what%e2%80%99s-the-future/comment-page-1/#comment-4351 Ian Thu, 07 Jan 2010 01:00:20 +0000 http://blogkindle.com/?p=2454#comment-4351 I think we're going to find over the next few years that the problem isn't the display technology but the battery technology. It has been the problem for awhile, affecting laptops, phones, etc. Hopefully someone will come out with a great breakthrough and that will allow us to have more impressive devices. It's always about the power. Of course, if it keeps going the way it is, we'll probably have power radiating out of houses and cars to recharge our devices and that, well that will fix the problem.

Paper books will most likely become collector's items kind of like hot rod cars from rock-n-roll era. I wouldn’t say that they will not exist at all.

Within 10 years, paper books, newspapers, and magazines will no longer exist. I hope they make these screens for the Kindle.

Don't know if this is correct.
