Only from France: Epaper Art makes Cybook part of an ‘object d’art’

By David Rothman

cybookasartThe Cybook Gen3 E Ink machine sold out again, according to Bookeen, but the company says a new batch will start reaching customers in March—first come, first served. Meanwhile the company has announced the $249 “Epaper Art frame.”

The aluminum frame “merges” with the Cybook to become an “objet d’art’” and let you “view and share your pictures, photos and digital works of art. Each frame is unique, and numbered on the back. They are made to order and delivered after four weeks. Once the Cybook has been slid into the back, the frame becomes the best means to appreciate the beauty of the fine images on Epaper.” More details are here.

So, gang, what do you think? Is anyone ordering this? Why or why not? And does anybody frequent an art-oriented forum? It might be fascinating to get some reaction from the image-oriented.
