Intel and Plastic Logic have jointly developed a new paper-like tablet prototype (which they call PaperTab). These tablets use Plastic Logic's 10.7" flexible touch E Ink displays and Intel's Core i5 processors. A user can use several PaperTabs devices at the same time, and these can interact between them, as can be seen in the video below:
Roel Vertegaal, a director in Queen's University's human media lab (who's also involved in this projector) estimates that most computers will look and feel like that - within five to ten years. It's likely that the displays will be full-color OLED ones by then, though...
The PaperTab devices will be on displays during CES 2013 starting tomorrow (January 8th).
