1. Plastic Logic isn't likely to be competing head to head with PVI (at least at first). In Volume or Applications.
2. Plastic Logic, being a new technology with perceived benefits over glass tft's (and probably lower yields), is likely to be much more expensive and not price competitive with PVI.
3. Regardless of the drive electronics, the electrophoretic imaging film is coming from E Ink either way.

I wouldn't pin your hopes on Plastic Logic being able to introduce price competition for these displays.
