So, LCD is cheap because everyone is making them but eink is unavailable because there is only one manufacturer. Sounds like a patent problem that is stifling the progress.
And I don't believe that companies are all-knowing and can be sure that it will not be profitable. They make stupid decisions all the time. Business is always a risk but why not experiment? I don't need 20" screen. A laptop with 14" e-ink would be fantastic.
