True. LCD is getting outdated and AMOLED is getting used more often. And that is a lot better in contrast than LCD. It's also more energy efficient. So the need for e-ink is actually decreasing, not increasing. Once the biggest hurdle has been taken (in my eyes, that's visibility in a very bright environment without emptying your battery in a few hours), the need for e-ink will decrease even more.

But I'd buy an e-ink cover, if only because the one thing any other screen cannot do: the ability to show something without taking battery power at all.
