Do you think that the new Kindle (non tablets) will have the color e-ink screen from eink.com?

I was watching some youtube videos of the new color ereader screen called the "E Ink Triton Imaging Film". It looks pretty amazing. There's one ereader product with it from Asia that has been announced with no release date.

Since the same company's current eink display is used in the Kindles, it makes sense that Kindle would try to 'blow away the competition' with something new and exciting. And they obviously have a good relationship now.

I'm wondering if it might be worth waiting a few months to see what happens with this. I don't want a LCD/tablet type device for reading but this would be awesome to have true e-paper with color.

What do you think?
