The E-sheet can be folded like regular paper and features a touch-screen interface, complete with an on-screen keyboard. While the extent of its features are unspecified, the E-sheet is capable of wireless communication and features an independent power source, and houses an applications suite that includes an electronic mail client. | The E-sheet can be folded like regular paper and features a touch-screen interface, complete with an on-screen keyboard.
