The Vook Blog Vook: Read it, Watch it.

Here at vook we always have one eye on what’s coming down the pike in terms of hardware. We love our iPhones and Kindles but are anxiously anticipating the day that technology catches up with our dream of integrated video and text. The good news is I think we’re almost there.

Here’s a handful of devices that are getting us excited right now.

1. Fujitsu’s FLEPia

Shown here as a prototype in 2024. FLEPia is color e-paper (which does not play video, yet). Launched commercially in March 2024 in Japan.

2. Techcrunch’s Crunchpad

Popular technology blog Techcrunch has been cheerleading a new device in this space and, frustrated by the lack of response by manufacturers, commissioned a product themselves.

3. Google Android based netbooks

One of the first Android based netbooks manufactured by GNB – demo’d here in June 2024.

BONUS! The long rumored Apple tablet

Much has been bantered about online about a forthcoming tablet device from Apple. Shown here in a rendering made by a fan.
