- Then they gutted the e-ink refresh rate by making it nearly 100x faster. Slow down and smell the roses, I say.

Finally, the nail in the coffin, so to speak.. The bastards at ASUS did it all at a price well under half of all comparable tablets while adding a Wacom input panel usually reserved for tablets costing 5 times as much!
My god.. You're right! I may as well just hire someone to kick me senseless.

Don't hire that gentleman just yet! You could be in luck. I just did a little shopping and I couldn't find any black and white tablet computing devices. The only ones I could find displayed images and video just like you find in those technicolor talkies. That's fine and dandy if you want those devices for "personal computing" or "multi-media" or whatever the nerds are calling it, but they didn't use actual ink particles to simulate paper; not like that Asus 100x E-Ink 48 Shade-o-tron!
