Or I like the idea of a rolling up an e-reader into a cylinder to tuck in a bag.

I like the idea of having the screen pull out link window blinds myself. Need a bigger screen for something? pull it further. Don't need a big one to read on the bus? pull it out a little. it would even give you a convineint place as a manufacturer to put the batteries, and mount the control hardware for it. It ought to be even fairly trivial to determine how much of the screen is pulled out and adjust the display accordingly.

I like the idea of these being unfurled like a scroll, held in front of the reader: "hear ye! Hear ye!"

On the TV version of TekWar they had roll up mobile communication devices. Whenever I read of eink or flexible displays I always think of TekWar.

Also people bought Tek (a digital drug) by connecting two USB-like devices to transfer credits which I assume going by the context are like cash not credit or debit cards. That's very similar to what Bitcoin is attempting, I wonder if the mysterious creator of Bitcoin was a fan of TekWar?
