Everyones had that one idea they'd love to see happen, rumours speculated many years ago, with the expected release of the PSP 2 around the corner, pictures and leaked images arose of a bendable screened device which you could fold into your pocket?

The manufactures have stated that in years to come, these pieces of e-paper will eventually replace your common laptop tablets and computers in your homes and workplace, each piece of e-paper can be used as a workspace or blank document sheet, when being placed down onto the table will revert the document into an icon, just like your desktop!

In essence this USB sized device, shrouds you're home computing space in a portal of light, and instead of you're generic mouse and keyboard or even your touch input device or tablet, you'll now be pointing the way (Pun intended) with your fingers, yes your fingers, simply pointing at what you want, like a child before they've learnt to speak, and yes, you'll get it too.
