I was listening to
Digital Planet from the BBC recently, and they had an interview with the woman (whose name escapes me) who did the hardware for the XO. She said that she is now starting up a new company to make the hardware and technologies available to other manufacturers, screen included.
So, watch a space - there could be new e-book readers coming out with the same screen technology - switchable colour/monochrome and low power - sounds good to me.
