I agree but for me I need true full spectrum color in the references I plan to use. This is why I am going to be going with an LCD/TFT panel until a reasonable EPD type panel is out there.
I think today there mfg's have an advantage and won't need to run through the same color levels evolution of days gone by...there is already plenty of experience with color laser printers (not that different than how EPD panels work really) so the ability to produce all colors should follow the first gen panels fairly quickly. But as I mentioned in my last post...it's all about the white they can produce and that those white particles remain white over time...of course the other color particles used need to behave the same way.
I almost wonder if someone is not working on a generic completely clear particle that responds to voltages and/or backlight to change the color it displays. Of course that is a way out there idea I am sure, with no toe-hold in reality.
