TouchBook offers interactive pages

The TouchBook is different from other e-book devices, as it functions more like a Tablet PC than anything else. You can touch an icon or a URL on the printed page in the book in order to activate various programs such as a Web browser or an application on a PC. You would be surprised to know that the pages containing such sensors are as thin as a regular sheet of paper, with all the heavy duty electronic equipment residing in the book’s hardback cover. Chances are there’s WiFi connectivity built-in if it were to run programs off your computer remotely. I guess practical applications would include encyclopedias and factual reading material, while the more commercially-inclined brain would think of using the TouchBook as a sales catalog instead. You have no idea how many men would want Victoria Secret’s catalogs to come in the TouchBook format.
