Um, no. However if you had access to a working backplane then it would.

I did discover something interesting though, connecting to the elastomer is possible using... wait for it... Calculator display conductors. The material you need can be had from any defunct calculator, small LCD panel etc (old epson printers are handy for this) and it works fairly well.

Haven't tried the copper bump trick yet, but one of my contacts on the 'Net tells me that it would be temperamental at best.
Maybe use some of that conducting anisotropic glue "gunk" they sell?

Or perhaps lay out an array of "bumps" of silver epoxy and drop the (dry) e-ink sheet onto that?
