The only other know viable tech that matches eink with decent colour potential is liquavista which belongs to Amazon.

But back to the topic on hand: not sure I'd want to buy a 7.8". I'd have to see the actual measurements (both size and weight), naturally, but I now feel that it's too large for portability. Not that I'd buy anything smaller than 6.8" anymore, but still!
