Esquire E-Ink Issue

For the October issue of Esquire, they have released 100,000 issues with the world's first E-Ink magazine cover to celebrate their 75th anniversary.

The Special Collectors Edition – “The 21st Century Begins Now” contains an experiential E-Ink display – the same technology used in the Amazon Kindle and Sony Reader.

This is the first time it's been used in a magazine cover, however, and it looks pretty cool.

You can read more about it at Esquire.com.

The magazine contains two displays, and Esquire says the batteries should last 90 days or more, and that life can be extended by storing the magazine somewhere cold – like the refrigerator!
