Alcatel Unveils One Touch Hero With Awesome E-Ink Cover

[manucitc]

the One Touch Hero is no slouch. It has a 1.5 GHz quad-core processor, a 13MP camera, a 3400mAh battery, and a 6-inch display. That said, I don't care. What matters here are the cool accessories that will be available for the device. It comes with a stylus, making it an obvious competitor to the Galaxy Note but with a screen ready to take on the Galaxy Mega. More distinctive, though, is its e-ink cover. This comes with a second screen that enables users to read newspapers and magazines on a display that resembles physical paper. There's also the MagicFlip cover, which offers LED notifications of alerts.

Nice. The main drawback of the mobile phones was the amount of battery power consumed by the screen when they are on (while reading email, news, etc). E ink will definitely save battery life to some extent.
Wonder what the price will be. Around 30-40k?

This is really is a very neat feature. I do read a fair bit on my phone but after a point the eye strain does become irritating.
