World's first colour e-reader?

Chinese manufacturer Hanvon unveiled the World's first color e-ink e-reader at CES 2011 earlier this month. The device uses e-ink technology and has the capability of displaying up to 4096 colours. This is achieved by overlaying a colour filter over the black and white screen to produce the colours. In addition the contrast ratio has doubled over the last year so that the black and white colours still show through the colour filter. Although Barnes & Noble recently announced a color Nook and the Apple iPad has a color screen, both devices use LCD technology used for televisions and monitors.
