I am anticipating a paper like display that also can be used as a computer monitor. A paper like display is a dream for those who work on computers. If one wants to watch videos or play games, then a big screen plasma display is the choice. E-Ink can't be used because of its poor refreshing rate. Old LCD watches or LCD displays on car radios use reflecting light other than back light, the actually has the same functionally as a E-Ink display despite of the worse contrast, but I have seen a car radio with a pretty white background LCD. If we can make the background even whiter, then the E-Ink isn't really necessary. I hope some LCD manufactures can make a reflecting LCD, it sure has a market.
