Lots of people would welcome a large 12" or more color e-ink device if it were competitively priced.
The problem there is what is 'competitively priced'? I bought a Surface primarily because I wanted a 12" screen to read comics. But I was able to justify the cost because the Surface was also able to replace my laptop.

I'd like a nice 12" color e-ink reader. But would I pay $1,200 for such a device that I at least would only use to read comics? Probably not.
