E-reader manufacturers are doing their darnedest to get their devices to  behave more like the old fashioned books we've all since abandoned, but  we won't be happy until we can roll one up and stuff it in our back  pockets, paperback-style. Sony's working hard to make that dream a  reality -- the company showed off some new bendable display technology  behind closed doors at last week's SID conference in LA, including a color unit  and the extremely flexible black and white e-paper display seen above,  which can be bent to a 5mm curvature radius. The 13.3-inch sheet has a  1,600 x 1,200 (150ppi) resolution and is powered by organic TFTs. Sony  showed off and bent the thing at the show, reportedly to the cheers of  the crowd in attendance. Clearly they're all as excited as we are to  make some really expensive e-paper airplanes. For more shots of the  bending process, consult the source link below.
