Feedback on the Triton display has been poor. Probably best to wait for "proper" colour eInk, rather than the CFA approach.
Yes, I agree - I just pointed out that it's real and exists (and it is a mass-production eInk reader, not just a working prototype).

The high price (although it's a large screen, which isn't insignificant) and the critical feedback are keeping me from being really interested in this specific model, but it's probably a good indicator of what's currently possible (and may perhaps be improved in the relatively near future).
