I think that kjk suggested you to make a forum search before because such polls have already been done, and I think there are many. Maybe too many. The LCD vs eInk debate is a dead horse now.

As for LCD vs CRT, as far as I know (which is little) CRT went bye bye because:
a) LCD consumes less electricity
b) LCD can have brigther colours
c) LCD has a higher refresh rate and progressive scan
d) an LCD screen produces less heat

Also, European laws (I don't know about the rest of the world, though) are pushing companies to produce devices who consume less energy and less waste. That's why LCD is being (very slowly, to tell the truth) abandoned too, in favour of LED, OLED and AMOLED screens.
