Somebody just sent me a photo of this. What do you think?

Do you think it is an original, or an edited picture?

Espresso Book Machine

While Time thinks this is a great invention, I think so too.

But I still think a device that can store dozens or hundreds  of books in digital form, and can be brought around and have days of battery power, which provides really good way to read, is still the future.

While it is great that people log around notebook computers, I still think of school children not logging heavy books, but just an inexpensive  tablet which contains all the reading materials  ( and probably their notes) they need to access while in school, with a battery that last for weeks, not hours.  Can you imagine the number of trees and paper we would save?

Notebook computers are great — but they try to do too many things, the battery life is still too short, and it still is too expensive.  They also allow you to play too many games, or too many things that are plain waste of time, that you think twice before giving one to your kids.

Every new innovation that brings productivity to the office, also seem to bring with it many opportunities to goof off.  It would be great if there are introductions that forces productivity and PREVENTS goof offs.

An ATM for Books - The Best Inventions Of The Year - TIME

The Espresso Book Machine—meaning “fast,” not coffee—can churn out a 300-page paperback on demand, complete with color cover, in just 3 min. The $50,000 machine could transform libraries into minibookstores, making hard-to-find titles as accessible as cappuccinos. At $3 a book they might be cheaper too.
