Well, to some extent...
Wireless modularity is pretty sweet. But then you hit another problem.
As an embedded engineer, you should realize that throwing more power after something isn't the 'best' way to solve it - you give it just what it needs, and a little more. It drives down both cost and power consumption.
The biggest problem with wireless interconnectivity is that sitting there *still* expends power.
In comparison, the biggest *draw* to eInk is that I can flip a screen today, flip it again tomorrow, and ten days from now still have pretty much enough juice to crank through 9,998 more pages...well, that's if the engineer's specs don't lie. =P
Wasn't that the real selling point of e-Ink anyways?
