Yeah that's the hype. There are real benefits of EPDs (the screen tech of E-Ink's product), such they don't hold a candle to print in terms of real-world readability and legibility. It's mostly marketing and commonplace ignorance that unite the two.
I posted some casual snapshots of different kinds of print juxtaposed with the 505's EPD over
here. Direct comparisons are pretty rare, so you might find it interesting.
