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
Java is more open towards other Entreprise platforms like Alfresco or jBoss.
From the press release: "Our development of the world's largest flexible display has opened up a new market in the next-generation display sector of e-paper," said CTO and executive VP of LG Display, In Jae Chung. "As the e-paper market is growing at a rapid pace, LG Display will continue to deliver new value to customers and the market through industry-leading technologies and differentiated products."
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:
