I think they may watch to see how this whole tablet market plays out. E ink tech has been extremely slow to advance and I have a feeling if something doesn't pick up within the next 6 months, eink may be relugated to a "niche" market. The best advancement eink has had in the past 6-7 years has been a little sharper contrast ratio and labeling it Pearl Screen, like it's some sort of game changer or market shifter.
eink has really been dragging their feet when it come to advancement and if they don't hurry it could be too late.
I use my nook color for my primary reading and as much as I love my eink nook, the whole eink is starting to feel like yesterday's tech. I hope I'm wrong but eink as whole has to start making some moves.
