What is the
iLiad?
The iLiad is a portable device that lets you read and write as you
do on paper everywhere you go. Everything you like to read, like books,
newspapers and documents, you can now take along on a device as small
and light as a single book. Even in bright sunlight the display of
the iLiad offers you perfect readability. With the iLiad can you also
send, receive and share documents with family, friends or business
colleagues. 
More than just reading
Just as with normal paper, you're able to make notes and annotate
existing documents, but unlike paper your annotated documents and
notes can easily be transferred to a PC or another iLiad. Your friends
and colleagues can also add remarks or edit your notes and return
them to you. The iLiad is not just about serious stuff, you can
also do Sudoku and Crossword puzzles, read comics and sketch or
draw on it.
What can you do with the iLiad?
* Anything you can print from your PC can be read on the iLiad.
You can also download books and other information from the internet.
You can even receive digital subscriptions to international newspapers
on an iLiad.
* The iLiad has a wireless connection to automatically download
content and updates over the Internet. You can also connect the
iLiad directly to any PC with a USB cable. The iLiad Companion software
enables you to easily transfer and manage the documents between
your PC and the iLiad.
* The iLiad can hold dozens of books and documents. Memory capacity
can be increased simply by inserting a Compact Flash or MMC card,
just as with digital camera. You can even insert your USB-stick
into the iLiad to quickly read content.
Easy on the eyes, easy on the environment
The paper-like display of the iLiad produces a stable image, unlike
a flickering PC screen. So the reading experience with the iLiad
is much more comfortable, enabling you to go on for hours without
tiring your eyes. The display only consumes power when a page is
turned so the power consumptions is very low. And just think of
the paper you can save. You no longer need to rely on printed editions
of newspapers, books or your own printed documents and notes!
