That seems to be what they're trying to do, JSWolf -- accept that they can't have e-ink and a back-light at the same time, and get on with figuring out the best arrangement they
can have without e-ink.
One minor nit to pick, while I'm in here: you can do touch screen with e-ink, either as wacom or as actual touch (like a Palm) -- I recall reading about it a couple of years ago on e-ink's site.
