You have two devices and a snail (I also have the latter) which fail in being reflective,
and supposedly other devices, reflective, which fail in framerate, not just colour.

Liquavista: somebody slept with the wrong wife, gave stupor to the wrong brother and run away with the wrong money - or the other faults the technology may have had and which are not so easy to be found documented (coincidence?).

Of course, here I am considering the display technology beyond its adequacy for reading, say, a novel. For that, DNSB has already replied: «Since the only colour in 99.9% of the books I read is the cover...».
