I don't think anyone forgot. Sony tried to be innovative, it just turned out that the idea of lit eInk wasn't ready for prime time. Their mistake might have been in going ahead and releasing it, but I'm not sure as I don't know what their sales numbers looked like. I know a couple of people that still have 700's and use them all the time for reading in bed, they jsut use something else the rest of the time.
