Ectaco wants $110 for the replacement.

That's a hard sell for me, as much as I like that screen.

Eink is right out until they get the plastic substrate, and the Sony 900 isn't crisp enough to be a reasonable alternative.

I'll try the Ipad, but it's hard to go back to a backlit lcd...

Perhaps the PixelQI stuff will launch in the summer.. Or that new Asus reader looks to be using the same screen as the Ectaco..
