May 2010

Distributing university courses on ePaper seems a very promissing idea. Here are 2 tests of ePaper in Universities:
  1. With the iRex DR1000S at the University of Amsterdam during the eReading Event : Annemieke van der Mark /Marketing docent Hogeschool van Amsterdam : Hoe ervaren studenten de e-reader voor hun studieboeken? Evaluatie van een praktijktest. PRESENTATIE

  2. With the Kindle DX at the University of Virginia (Darden School of Business)
Unfortunately, the results for ePaper were in both cases quiet negative...

In Amsterdam, students who could use an eReader went back to regular paper.

At the University of Virginia, the following quote resumes the "problem":
“You must be highly engaged in the classroom every day,’’ says Koenig, and the Kindle is “not flexible enough. … It could be clunky. You can’t move between pages, documents, charts and graphs simply or easily enough compared to the paper alternatives.’’

We will need to find the right ergonomic setup for those devices such that they enable rather than slow down learning.

    I'm currently doing some modeling for the eReader Reference Architecture. Today I spent the all afternoon doing a lot of cosmetics for making good looking diagrams.

    As my meta-model is Archimate, I have spent some time this afternon to create an Archimate Profile in my modeling tool (BOUML).

    You can see here how it looks like (Click to enlarge)

    iPad in July in Belgium : What about 3G ? Ony Mobile Viking will be ready ! Go Vikings !! bit.ly
    The iPad will arrive in Belgium in July 2010.

    Unfortunately it's not sure that the 3G will be possible with all operators :

    "What is important to note here is that the 3G version of the iPad only support the SIM microcards  (also called 3FF). This is a more compact version of the current 2FF SIM card which are used by all Belgian GSMs. To our [DataNews] knowledge, the Belgian SIM microcards are temporarily unavailable. Only the mobile operator Mobile Vikings have already announced microcards ordered from the manufacturer Gemalto SIM. They should be provided in June, just in time so before the launch of the iPad See http://mobilevikings.com/nl/blog/micro-sim-cards-ordered/ ."

    I have received this email today :

    "Madam, Sir, WeTab Fan,


    To clearly differentiate our products within the international market for tablet computers, as of today we have changed the product name of our tablet computer from WePad to WeTab. Similarly, the company formerly known as WePad GmbH will now trade under WeTab GmbH. This change only concerns the name of the product and company."
