Maybe an e-ink tablet to read comics on. But then the color e-ink I've seen so far looks a bit faded and I already have my Surface.

Maybe I'm being myopic about the benefits that would come with a color screen. I'd be fine with being proven wrong. But for me, for now, no biggie.
I don't disagree with you on any point here, but there seems to be enthusiasm for color e-Ink screens and PocketBook is offering one. I think it's interesting that they went with a 6" model to start, I'm guessing because they could sell it (relatively) cheaply and it gives them a good way to test the market. And maybe the technology isn't quite up to snuff for bigger screens? If this color technology is strictly limited to 100 dpi, it would probably look pathetic on a bigger screen. (I'm even wondering how it will look on a 6" screen.)
