really, how much better or sharper should eInk get? does sharpness make any real difference when you can change font size to suit your eyes rather than strain your eyes to read little fonts?
this sharpness sheet comes from movie watchers or game players...
the only real relevant improvements for eInk to me are addition of colors (to read comics and magazines) and perhaps even less glare on the surface. Can't get much better as far as battery economy goes, I guess.
aside from eInk tech itself, I'd like to see usability improvements in touch interface in ereaders. A bar at the bottom to swipe and flip through pages, for instance...
