The first e-ink device producer that understands that just tossing cheap hardware on the market is not enough to build up a stable market, but instead invests in building excellent and versatile software, will be on the winning end of the competition.

But unlike building and distributing hardware, creating high quality software is prohibitively expensive in comparison.

So if as a consumer you are stuck with excellent hardware but mediocre software, and if the latter is not available as source code in order to enable qualified customers to enhance it, there is not much hope left for a good product any time soon.
