E-Ink Watch
Very intriguing e-ink watch article. Perhaps this is the future of e-ink. To be in places where flexibility and extended battery lift is needed more than the versatility of all in one devices.

I think e-ink has a very bright future. It could replace LCD watches. And those TVs that they use in malls for static displays? E-ink would be ideal.

I love the idea, but the design... I'm not sure at all. Makes me thing of the Nike Fuel wristleband:

While I would like all the things that the Pebble does, my phone already does most of it, and the design of the CST-01 is just much more to my liking (The Pebble is ugly IMO).. I already pledged for the CST-01..

But I assume that in 5 years the market for eink watches will be blooming!

The future has been in Japan for a couple of years. I don't know how popular they are but you can go in and buy one at any electronics shop. High quality Seiko. Radio controlled time.

Glad to hear that there at least one or two industries where Japanese companies have not dropped the ball...

I would like to see more eInk things. A watch would be great.

Shoot, I would like an Eink display on my ac/heating thermostat.

The pebble is meant to work with your phone. Display info on the watch so you don't have to keep digging your phone out
