Is Nxtpaper really a good alternative to Caleido?
I'm actually thinking of buying a color ereader for my kids to read mangas (they're now using my good old Kobo Forma).
But yep, 7" is too small and 10,3" too large and expensive for that purpose only. I'm just reluctant to buy a real tablet for them to read. Is Nxtpaper really that close to "real paper"? I've read here and there that RLCD screens can work without backlight. But what in real conditions? Is it even close to a running smartwatch (like my Garmin Forerunner)?
