Like the look of this quite a bit.

I have a joke for you. I have a prediction that you are going to walk into a bar, my prediction was wrong and your wallet is gone.

Love the idea. Worry about the back screen getting hammered.

But, very interesting to use ePaper display.

It feels like something from The Onion though. :)

"but doesn't harm your eyes"... err backlit LCD or OLED screens are hurting my eyes?

That aside, I like the idea. I'd go for a more basic one with only the e-paper display, even.

They sortof do, it's like shining a bright light into your eyes. Not very good, altho it may have minuscule effects...

If I could be bothered getting out my light meter I'm pretty certain I could prove my phone screen is not all that bright. I reckon they're just playing to misconceptions.
