Come 2015-2016, I expect to see e-ink phones. Maybe it will be at the bleeding edge of the market, but it's a tremendous application, IMHO.

I'll buy another e-ink reader - preferably from Kobo - but while today's AuraHD is too physically heavy (IMHO), I expect they'll have a more attractive (to me) lineup on shelves in that 2015-2016 timeframe.

The only Android LCD tablet which my eyes kiss me for using to read books (and I have gone through 7 of them) is the 7" NookHD, so count me in for 2 e-ink devices in the future.
