I agree with you that I don't think the current technology can support what I want. But perhaps some of the flexible screens coming on the market in the near future could work? The hardware to deal with page refreshes could be shared among all physical pages, so that would help bring down the cost. The pages wouldn't have to be an exact match for paper - I'd be happy with something flexible and paper-ish that I can turn back and forth.
- hmsimha 14y agoJust now saw this response. My thought at the moment is that if this would be feasible in the future, it would still be anywhere from 5 to 10 times the cost of (what is currently) a traditional e-reader. But perhaps in 10 years, the equivalent of today's b&n simple touch would retail for $20-30 and the product described in your post (which it looks like you've deleted for some reason) could be made available for less than $200
