I don't want to be a killjoy but the FLEPia it's not the perfect device.

Take a look at this thead.

The tech is not at all color e-ink, contrast is not as good and don't get me started on color refresh rate...
Those complaining about eink current slow refresh rates will find plenty of time to meditate and maybe even write a book because the FLEPia takes almost 5s to refresh...
(but it's quicker with less colors...)

But yes I'm still getting it... since size matters..
BTW eink's color lab prototypes are way better than this so there's still hope.
