I'll beg to differ on this point. I think the e-ink screen is amazing, but the XO Laptop has a monochrome mode for the screen that is amazing and, I think, a technology that could make an amazing next gen ebook. The problem with those though is battery life will not last for days on end and I think that's a respectable trade off.

Personal prefs apply, of course, but if you can get your hands on an XO, I recommend taking a look at it.
