Yeah, a little lean on details...
I meant he got stuff jumbled up. That's what he sound like. I'm surprised he didn't talk about the Irex device from Plastic Logic it's got color, touch screens and lasers. You know, that other reader is lacking.

I don't think color eink is what you want for comics. I mean maybe strips, but not your weeklies or monthlies. Most of those new one print on something glossy or are just to vivid. I'm thinking MIDs or tablets are where you need to go for that action.
