Ok, but I still don't really get it. Anything but the most basic text entry is awful using e-ink. Even typing in a search query on my Kindle 3 leads to quite a bit of flickering. Imagine inserting text into the middle of an email so that half the email has to scroll down as you type. Maybe when we have flicker-free e-ink replacements this will be awesome, but for now, not so sure...
