The new device is coming. This is the Readius which was created by Dutch Firm and it looks like a standard mobile phone, but it unfolds to reveal a full screen larger than the actual device.
This is the functionality of e-readers with features of mobile phones, according to Polymer Vision. The device also comes with an Internet portal for searching and personalizing content. Once users have selected content and services based on their preferences, the portal “pushes” the information to them, the company said. for 30 hours on a single battery charge. The device’s microSD removable flash memory allows e-books and other information to be stored on it, such as podcasts, audio books, and music.

In addition to serving as an e-reader, Readius has tri-band HSDPA capability, which means users can make phone calls and access the Internet over third-generation cellular networks based on the technology.
