January 2010Ce matin on regardait un match de foot (hé oui) avec Thomas. Le commentateur TV parle de "l'attaquant Sud-Coréen" Park Thomas (6 ans et demi) me dit: " Ca je connaissais pas encore comme pays : la Sudcorie". :-)))  Thomas me fait rire avec la "Sudcorie", le pays du foot levant http://bit.ly/bWPrU2

Electronic prescriptions and certificates on ePaper in 2011 in Belgium ? http://bit.ly/cFwNon
Million Kindles sold ? http://natesebooknews.com/?p=198
The Belgian Minister for Simplification, Vincent Van Quickenborne, wants to eliminate the requirements of drugs to pharmacists, the certificates for mutual care and medical certificates to employers. For 2011, Minister Van Quickenborne (Open VLD) plans to introduce electronic prescriptions and certificates, to avoid paper documents, says he in De Standaard and Het Nieuwsblad. "The electronification comprehensive health care represents a saving of 1, 5 billion," said the minister. Why not carrying your prescriptions and cerificates with you on a eReader, within a secured your patient file ? Source:  I had to laugh when I saw this picture here : http://lifehacker.com/5458690/the-problem-with-the-apple-ipad  And when I compare it with my Appe "logo" I draw just for the fun...   Today, I would like to point you to a real ePaper application : the eFlyBook.  "eFlyBook is a portable electronic device that contains all of the U.S. digitized terminal procedures, IFR high and low altitude enroute charts, U.S. airport facility directory, the FAR/AIM, and can accommodate other user installed eDocs such as books, newspapers, magazines, pictures, and many others. eFlyBook brings revolutionary technology right to your fingertips with impressive features such as an ample 8.1 inch display in a 1/2 inch thick, 13.7 oz device, with very low power consumption providing days of interaction, incredible document viewing capability, and so much more." It uses the iRex technology (I think the illiad). http://www.eflybook.com/  When you search on ePaper, you will find some really outdated websites. Look for example at http://www.epaper.org.uk/. It seems that some people had than jumped on their board to surf an ePaper wave that lasted too long to arrive. I'm conscious that this market might take years before really taking off, but I'm confident it will eventually fly. Yesterday, Apple released the iPad but I'm confident that ePaper will provide solutions with much lower energy consumption which will allow a competitive advantage. ePaper should provide a more stable and cheaper technology for long term consultation of eContent. But it might take time : I'm ready to spend many years doing this on the side even if I'd prefer to have ePaper as primary activity :

With Blio you don't need a special hardware device like an ePaper based reader to read eBooks, you just use your PC... Engadget.com : "...knfb's Blio [comes] with Mac and PC compatible software saying you don't need new fancy hardware to read the the printed page on a screen....or may be you do. Regardless, of where the Blio software ends up we really dig it and it approaches digital reading in a whole new way. In case you didn't know the Blio software aims to preserve the traditional book or magazine format by keeping its layout, fonts, images, but also to meld it with digital interactivity..."

A tentative to list eBook Readers - more than 50 models including ePaper, LCD, Prototypes and Rumors - http://bit.ly/5ADmVs
On January 20th 2010, Amazon announced its new deal proposal: If you format your eBook for the Amazon Digital Text Platform - so people can read it on their Kindle - Amazon will give you upto 70% of the sale if you satisfy some conditions. You can read about those conditions in the press release. Any (United States) citizen can sign up for an account, upload and sell eBooks through Amazon. Links Sources  Last week, I published the links of 3 lists of eReaders. I took the time to aggregate them in an attempt to compile a complete list of eReaders. There are more than 50 models of "eReaders". In this list there are ePaper eBook readers, LCD readers, prototypes and Rumors (Apple Tablet). You can find the list here: List of eReaders.  @vbsteven See the top of my facebook page. When I click on Inbox to see the new message, all are read http://tweetphoto.com/9133614

Would the rumored Apple Tablet use ePaper ? http://bit.ly/7TRaSO. Probably not.

Since I found out the bug that was annoying me, my Ubuntu is really very stable and fast now. Works like a charm.
Java FX or Adobe AIR ? http://bit.ly/4DxFBf
Today, I'm looking at a technology for implementing some demos with the new eReader I have received yesterday. My objective is to demonstrate some showcases of a an ePaper Reference Architecture, therefore I want to develop/assemble a Desktop application, a kind of iTunes for eReader. I currently face a dilemna: which technology to choose Java or Adobe (AIR) ? Both are portable.Both offer document workflow solutions, which I believe are very important elements. Advantages of Java

3 lists of ePaper eReaders - http://bit.ly/62uSef
ePaper Users, Unite ! I would like to share my ePaper experiences with peers. Therefore I would like to start an ePaper User Group where people could discuss and exchange their ideas or thoughts. The group is located on Facebook and on Linked In:
 Today, I publish on appepaper.com 3 lists of eReaders. This last month, a lot of eReaders have appeared. eReaders have been the stars of the CES in Las Vegas. In order to help potential ePaper users, the appepaper website will try to list them and provide links to the best reviews.  When you know you will eventually buy something, buy it immediately.
2010 Planning is nearly finished. Probably it won't happen like this but at least there is a plan.
I have finalized a business goal tree for 2010. AppePaper Business goals are architectured according to a LVPN principle:

This weekend I wanted to go to Antwerp to buy a IREX Digital Reader 1000S but probably I'm not going to do it. I have seen there were many announcements at CES (Ex : CES 2010 in teken van digitaal lezen ), maybe I should wait to buy some more recent technology. The DRS1000S has been there for more than a year now. On the others side, the reader is very cool. I especially like the fact that you can write and draw on it.  (Image Source : eBouqin.fr) Furthermore, the weather conditions will be very difficult this weekend (snow !). Is it a sign that I should wait a bit more ? Maybe yes, maybe no, we will think about it...   Back from 1H Mountain Bike in cold wind and snow...
