For one thing, color eInk using the Triton color layer is not all that good. WHen you use Triton to get color, you end up with a lower resolution screen because you have to use multiple dots to get one dot of color. The colors are also muted and it's slower because you need to have to figure out how to display the colors.

Overall, there really isn't a workable color screen that isn't LCD or LED.
