Naw. It's refreshing in the direction of the shortest axis to try and keep the refresh time down. Most text stopped being printed right to left in the late 1950's. Text is usually left to right, or top to bottom. Pages stilll mostly turn left to right, though.
It actually does 3 refreshes: first 64 colors, then 4096, then the full 200k. The screen's readable after the first refresh. The Bridgestone display is way, way better as a user experience, incidentally. Saw my first one yesterday.
