I think this point is especially interesting - the Que seems to have very impressive document handling capabilities, but it is rather slow - and we expect our computing devices to display information at nearly the speed of thought and input. Perhaps for this reason electronic ink is just not right for the ideal academic e-reader. At a minimum, an ideal device will have to provide both readability, speed, and organization.
