Are B&W E-ink Screens As Good As They Can Be Now?
We now have 300 ppi e-ink panels in most major e-readers, which looks amazing to the eye and, to me, just as good as a printed book.

Have we now hit "peak B&W e-ink" and further innovations will only happen with color epaper panels?

I really love the look of e-ink's Gallery 3 panels. The color and vibrancy are just as good as a printed magazine. But the page turns are so painfully slow.

I know there is a lot of being done on reflective LCD panels. But those are still backlit. They just use ambient light. So they're still harsh on the eyes compared to e-ink.

Hopefully we'll get a good, vibrant color eink panel one day with fast page refreshes.
