As Andy said... I don't think it's an elaborate plot, but the screen isn't there. It can't refresh enough for those sorts of functions to work all that well.

I don't want another LCD. If I want a LCD that can read a book, I can turn my laptop sideways. Or get a netbook. I don't. I want an eInk screen so I can read for hours and hours and have a bundle of texts with me, too.

So Asus can make whatever they want - but unless it works as well as eInk, I'll keep reading on my Kindle.
