Why is there glass anyways?
Kobo went to great lengths to claim that there was no glass between the eInk and the person when they released one of their new models a few years ago (Aura HD?). They claimed there was no glass. I highlighted the fallacy of this on MR, and evertually they changed the marketing copy to remove the reference to no glass.
Which leaves the glass either as part of the eInk (eInk embedded in the glass) or behind the eInk.
I can understand embedded, but if the glass is behind the eInk screen, then can't it be replaced by the metal plate that is already there (from what I remember when I pulled my Touch apart)?
Which means
