E Ink announced that Casio Hitachi Mobile Communications in Japan has selected E Ink Vizplex Imaging Film based displays for its newest family of mobile phones. CH-Mobile is planning on several product releases. These are the world’s first clamshell style mobile phones to use E Ink’s electronic paper technology on the outside.



The Hitachi W61H phone was the first of these product releases, featuring a secondary display utilizing E Ink Vizplex display on the external surface of the phone. Famous Japanese designer SeKiYuRiO created the Hitachi W61H to resemble a perfume bottle. The 2.7″ diagonal E Ink display scrolls through 96 different images in a stylish animation and is activated when a call or message is received, or when the clamshell phone is opened for use. The W61H comes in several colors and display styles and is serviced by KDDI (au).

^ look at the different graphic patterns in the first pic Oli...these can be changed accordingly by the user...

so end result...you don't have just one generic look for your phone...it can be changed to any of the pre-installed 95 patterns...sounds cool
