I would certainly hope so, since that's the whole point of my buying an E-Ink product.
Hopefully in a couple of years' time I'll end up with what I really want, which is something like my Origami but with a reasonably fast, colour e-ink display I can read anywhere.
The promise of portability isn't really fulfilled as long as "anywhere that's sunny" is excluded from places you can use your device.
Being able to lie in the field and read the net, do some writing, read or maybe play a game or two would be ideal, (goats willing)
