Not being well up on how the tech works, this may be a dumb question from me;

What's the best alternative to e-ink? I'm thinking specifically about the user experience here, lack of flicker, no danger of eye strain, performance in different lighting environments, battery life etc. Is there a viable, marketable alternative or are we to be stuck with whatever junk the manufacturers think we should buy?
