It is blazingly fast and that is the whole idea.

ONCE Epson releases the latest controller we can start the final porting and really get going. It is worth the wait!
Very cool.

But now I'm curious whether this also means that the devices will also support more shades of gray than initially reported? (My, admittedly limited, understanding was that the new controllers can support up to 4bit "depth")


Oh, and even though I'm a bit tardy, I'd like to thank you for your earlier reply.
