Opportunities and Evolution in the E-Book Reader Market

E-Paper Market Opportunities-2009

Most notably the arrival of Amazon’s Kindle book reader has turned e-paper into a near-mass-market technology for the first time. This success raises a lot of issues. E-paper has now become indentified with E Ink’s electrophoretic technology. What does this mean for other players in this space? what is the future of the many competing technologies such cholesteric LCDs or electrochromics? And how far will the growing familiarity with e-paper help the other applications to which e-paper is being directed; applications such signage, smart cards and computer peripherals?
