Qualcomm and Kyobo Introduce the First Mirasol Display eReader

Qualcomm has been touting the usefulness of Mirasol display technology to the mobile device market for quite some time but has been very quiet on that front in terms of new developments for quite some time. Today, that all changes. In partnership with Kyobo Book Centre, Korea's largest book seller, Qualcomm announced the Kyobo-branded color eReader featuring the first commercial Mirasol display. In addition to that, the Kyobo eReader will also feature Snapdragon S2 processor clocked at 1GHz.

For those unaware of Qualcomm's Mirasol technology, it is a drastically different way of designing a display.
