I promised Kyle I'd post something in English...


So you could not keep on living without knowing about Mac's new project: the iPaper.
Here is the translation of the Clubic article, the french mix up of Slashdot, Techcrunch and 1up:

"Rushed by Lenovo's latest product - the X300 - almost thinner than the MacBook Air, Apple has decided to come back with a very simple but yet revolutionnary concept: the iPaper.

« Now you can actually put many iPaper in an enveloppe, and send it with a regular stamp! This prototype can also be folded as well as bend » has Steve Jobs announced to a group of astonished JP Morgan's (corporate banking) analysists.

Technically, the screen wouldn't be LCD or plasma, but would embed a new technology based on hydro-cellulosic fibers. « This screen technology offers incredible contrast power, and the editing is made thanks to a simple stick named BicPen » says April Zfool, technical director at Clairefontaine [edit: French paper company], who has also worked on the project.

According to our sources, the iPaper screens could be sold by next September to a price « below $100 ». A particularly agressive price from Apple, who could once more launch a revolution in the computer industry - and maybe the origami world."

I hope you liked it :)
You know how much I <3 Mac ^^

Ps: sry for the mistakes - didn't have much time to translate it
