I'm due for an upgrade, too bad it's not a smartphone.
Yes, the inner keyboard in e-ink but with lower contrast than any e-ink reader. It is *not* backlit, more accurately side or edge lit. The e-ink screen is covered with a bubble membrane where individual bubbles are the discreet keys. The light is between the e-ink screen and the membrane.
It is a very nice application because with this phone you can can open it in either of two directions. When it's opened as a traditional flip phone you have a properly oriented keyboard with the expected numerical keypad. Turn the phone on its side and open it on the long side and the keyboard changes to a QWERTY style. Great for texting.
Hope this answers the questions.

Ah, so they are not individual keys? Then they are just sitting way down below the light, thus why we see the shading. The videos seemed to show that they were individual keys.
Also, the black seemed to glow, maybe that is from the color of light they are using.
