Why 7.8″? Surely 8″ is better. They replaced 6.8 with 7 and the Sage is 8″. I'd like to see a Sage without that load of magnets and connector for the useless power cover.
Also a 10.3″ or larger better than 227 dpi.

E-Ink (the company) seem to be really focussed on producing colour screens. When will Kobo join the Kaleido 3 crowd?
I don't think they are for ereaders. They are aiming at retail displays.
Kaleido is a niche and abysmal for novels. It's only good for comics and needs the front light on. Also Kaleido true resolution is half a regular mono panel resolution, fine for comics and poor for novels.

Eink itself is a niche with over half of ebooks read on phone apps.
Gallery colour is a different principle and only for retail display due to 1.5 second refresh!
Three supermarket chains here recently changed to eink 'two colour price tags' and one has larger panels.
