Hi,

here is the list of my requirements, when can I buy such a tablet?

10" display
Full featured (Android or Ubuntu) tablet, which can run regular applications
But has E-Ink color display
And the refresh rate is so good that it can display full motion video

Full motion video is already possible with E-Ink: http://www.engadget.com/2011/02/16/b...display-video/

But it is a prototype only.

And the latest E-Ink displays have 4096 colors.

When will someone combine the two, and make a color E-Ink display with fast refresh rate, so that it can display videos?

I heard that Amazon is working on a tablet which would use E-Ink, maybe that device could do the above things?
