Polymer Vision, the Dutch-owned technology company, has closed – taking with it its eInk product, Readius.
Readius was designed as a mobile phone screen, but the roll-screen technology had been touted as a possible electronic alternative to books and printed paper.
Plans for its release had been much delayed, reports jkOnTheRun – Journalism.co.uk first reported on its development in 2004.
