I can't believe I wasted a CYOA joke on "skimming."

Anyway, of eInk's many shortcomings, I remain unconvinced that the slow refresh rate applies for reading (if you happen to have a very (very!) loose definition of reading, please substitute in "perusing") books.

If you don't actually read books but instead skim, browse, or reference passages in them, then yeah, perhaps eInk isn't for you.
