with a nonreflective surface. Little or no glare, therefor they can be easily
read outdoors in the sunlight. The reflective surface is at the bottom of the
display's layers. Color displays take more light to effect a good contrast and
saturation, compared to a black and white display. So, the indoor use of a
color reflective display may require better lighting than we are normally used
to in our mancaves, or some added dedicated lighting or a built in light source
would likely be needed.

P.S.; There once was a time, long long ago, when people read from stacks of paper
glued together into what they called "books". Now many of those strange people would
even maintain a favorite stuffed chair and have a special "reading light" that they used
whenever they engaged in their perverse activity.
