Hitachi W61H Gets E-Ink Display

Now this is definitely one cell phone that all customization lovers would love to grab a hold of. The Hitachi W61H clamshell handset that will be made available this spring from KDDI features a black and white 2.7″ e-ink display known as “Silhouette screen” on the front, featuring 95 pre-installed graphic patterns where the user will be able to select to make it look as though you have a different color at all times. Those who are far-sighted ought to look into a viable business that offers pattern and picture downloading for such phones in the future. I’m just waiting for a colored display version to appear once they have sorted the battery issues out – black and white is a start, but color makes a whole world of difference.
