I think you got a few things mixed up. At the moment only the Kindle feature the Pearl screen.

The Boox uses a Vizplex screen to show you the image, like most other E Ink ereaders.

The Wacom is a separate screen, behind the E Ink display, that interacts with the stylus.

Could we see a Boox with both Pearl and Wacom? Maybe, but not for a while. It seems Amazon has their big grubby hands all over the first many batches.
