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.

Exactly. when you're reading lots, noting better the the E-ink, and the lightness of an e-reader. It just hold in the hand better. Battery life is an other point, i don't wanna have to worry about that too much.
But halas, e-ink screen are still suffering serious problem with refreshing.
My eyes are thankful that i use e-ink. I've read on various screen,from my TI-89, to my DS, or even my pretty descent laptop screen. Noting match to comfort and easiness of my cybook.
