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. :)

Hands free mail. Is that marketing lingo for speech recognition?

by the way I like the idea, too.

"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.
