I wrote about
backlight as a key of "long" or "not long".
Mirasol is 20-400% more energy effective in comparison with eInk.
BOTH these technologies are designed to use the reflected abmient light,
not LED-backlight (to save the battery power), so this comparison does not take into account the backlight, as the backlight LEDs are eating a LOT and LOT more energy than both eInk and Mirasol. So, as long as you enable backlight - this super-energy-effectiveness becomes microscopic in comparison with LEDs appetite and you can forget about this new technology "longlife".
I just had this in mind - if I can use Mirasol without backlight, it will live a lot longer than eInk devices. But at this time - I can't use it without backlight most the time as most of the time I read in low light environment... And in such an environment eInk will live a LOT longer than Mirasol as it does not need the backlight in low light environment.
Sorry if I explain some messy - it is difficult for me to formulate such things well in English.
