Initial response among publishers and marketeers
has indicated this could be the end of print as we know it, save for chip
packets and the like.
Using newly invented kryptonite e-waves the
new process, dubbed 'robo-print' merely requires a USB to be inserted into the
sender's PC. It then outputs the kryptonite e-waves to everyone who has the
e-paper, and hey presto, the 'print' whether a magazine or newspaper article, book,
or piece of promotional print appears on the 'paper'.
The real key to the sure-fire success of
robo-print lies in its ability to hold a mammoth amount of data storage in a newly
created ultra-tiny chip, thus ensuring the 'print' is sent to huge numbers of
users. Scientists are confident that a commercial companies will rush to
acquire the rights for the e-paper, which will be distributed free of charge to
the population under Premier K Rudd's new Aussue superhighway (toll's expected)
dream digital network.
Joint inventor Dr Ivan I'Maginaiton says, "the
new communication method e/tt/xxy/scholasticubercosmo to give it its proper
name, is a huge leap forward for mankind, and hopefully my bank balance. I
expect a ready take up among the developed world, especially those that want to
stop cutting down trees."
Launch date for robo-print is slated for
April 1 next year.
