Light My Kindle

We all know the Kindle isn’t the only e-reader in the game, but this new reader from Plastic Logic could be a big draw for the morning commuters. It’s designed specifically for newspapers, having a screen two-and-a-half times the size of the Kindle’s screen. To top it of, it’s flexible, like your morning newspaper.

Boing Boing has more details and a picture of the new device. It could attract the morning commuters who prefer to read The Boston Globe over, say, a Stephen King novel on their Kindle.

There’s no word on price yet, but I would assume it would be competitive for the Kindle and the Sony e-reader. Would you prefer a bigger screen and a flexible display to the book-ish design of the Kindle?
