All good points regarding the viability of plastics.

@Natch-- amazing stuff. Hope that it becomes feasible to collect & separate different wastes to the point it can be carted off to the TCP (?) plants for reconstituion.

@yvan-- nothing is ever popular unless it's cheap &/or easy.
Hmmm...that "good/fast/cheap" triangle should become a trapezoid. I think that for acceptance of new tech. or practices, "easy" needs to be a component.

In terms of competition for e-ink, and some of its applications, I must ask:

Can e-ink handle dynamic images, and not just static ones (i.e. can one view animation/video on e-ink)?

Was wondering this when I went to a website with an annoying banner that had sound. Am sure that the thinking was that if I get annoyed enough, I will click on the banner and fall into their little advertising trap. Am usure how much pull those banner people have, but they might hope to stymy the adoption of e-ink computer screens, if it means that their annoying flash ads are relegated to the electronic scrap heap.
