Electronic papers have been making their rounds so far, but not with much success. After all, the material is still prohibitively expensive to the man on the street and most folks prefer to get their news via traditional newspapers (good for wrapping up fish at the wet market, too) and electrical devices such as cell phones and computers. Bridgestone aims to go against the grain with its full-size steam-powered electronic newspaper instead. I wonder how popular it'll be should it roll out on a large scale.
