E-ink brings some advantages which can not be neglected:

1. Battery life, much longer than a laptop;
2. Hard to brake and even flexible, if is made on plastic;
3. Friendly with the human eye;
4. Light weight and easy to carry it with you, containing lots of files and documents;
5. Readable in bright light;
6. You can add more.

I don't see why the military won't invest in this technology to make it color, with faster refresh rate and adding more features to it.

The parallel seen by Phogg sounds realistic to me.
