How would you like to use a tablet made of electronic paper? This is the latest product to be shown off to the world by Sony. It is called – perhaps unsurprisingly -the Digital Paper tablet. The device is just 7mm thick and it is the touchscreen which is made out of electronic paper. The screen is A4 size and uses an E-Ink display. This allows users to write onto it...
So what is this Project Morpheus stuff from Sony all about then? Well, this is the name which has been given to the firm’s plans for a range of immersive headwear for gamers and for other uses.

Ever wondered what’s inside Sony’s flagship handheld? Well, wonder no more because the guys over at iFixit have got their mitts on the Vita and deconstructed it in the name of science (or plain old interest in how to fix it).
