Bright New Phone Displays That Don’t Guzzle Power

Just a slight mention of color e-ink technology, but with a photo.

Quote:
The E Ink Corporation of Cambridge, Mass., which developed low-power, black-and-white electronic displays for many e-book readers, is also working on a color screen that, like Qualcomm’s, takes advantage of ambient light. One prototype has a flexible color display on a stainless steel backing. “Our color displays will be sunlight-readable,” said Sriram K. Peruvemba, vice president for marketing, and will require very little power to do their job.

“Imagine,” he said, “if you are reading the newspaper on your laptop and stop to talk on the phone,” the newspaper shown on the laptop will consume power until you return. “With the technology we are building, though, you can lay down the display and talk” and not worry about draining the battery.
