> High contrast ratio (between 15 and 18 - paper is usually 15)
> Vivid colour support
> Flexible static/refreshing screen - parts of the screen update, whilst others remain stable, thus saving battery
> Ability to display video
Forget about features. Give me a device with the above properties, has at least 6" screen, and does a passable job of displaying epubs and PDFs and I'll pay you up to $500 (6") or $1000 (9"+) for it. My guess is no such thing can be produced today or in near future.
