It mostly collects dust and cat hair. I probably use my iPhone for 90% of my reading and my iPad for 5%. The iPad is a bit heavy to comfortably hold. I use the iPhone more because it is so small and easy to hold, though a screen size between these two would be better. So I've decided it would be too expensive to buy a PW2 to use rarely. I really like the iOS devices so much better than slow eInk devices. So I cancelled my PW2 pre-order. If Apple releases an iPad Mini with high enough resolution this year I will get that instead.
Good decision, if you already hardly ever use your eink device.
Me, on the other hand... My mouth is watering after seeing that video. I could not detect a single color blotch, and holding my breath hoping that's not due to the highly lit surroundings and screen.
