So far I heard only one answer (to this question) from some of JBC's users - they enjoy to read comics on their JBC and don't care about fake colors (in other words, they enjoy JBC's version of the colors in their comics) and are happy to pay "grey screen price" for it together with $500. I believe that these users represent a very small share of eInk readers market. Most of eInk screen users would prefere comfortable reading in most of light conditions in B/W - the experience that much cheaper devices (Kindle DXG and Sony T1 (for example) successfully deliver to their customers. And if somebody is really interested in COLORS, then iPad, for example, is always ready to serve their needs. |
This device is aimed at students, and for me, as a student, the fact that you can carry your JBC instead of tons of paper to university classes deserves what it's worth. As DaleDe said I need color for graphs and schemes. Ipad? I don't like to be swindled, and I don't want to screw my sight.
Cheers
