Current e-book readers only display colors in black and white and aren’t useful for viewing color magazines. Pixel Qi is a hybrid display screen that can display colors when a backlight is on. When the backlight is off, the e-book displays black and white colors, uses 70 percent less power, and is readable in direct sunlight. It can also be used in devices like netbooks or tablets. Pixel Qi CEO Mary Lou Jepsen plans on seeing this technology sometime in the first quarter of this year.
