Neat to see color eink on the way. But in the age of tablets, I don't think DX priced eink devices can escape a very small niche.

wow, looks pretty awesome.
i dont see anyone else using color eink, so it'll be interesting to see the response on it i cant read on the ipad bc of the backlit screen so this as an alternative would be amazing still reading my jetbook every night though |

The 9.68" PVI EPD screen with a display resolution of 1600 (H) * 1200 (W) is exceptionally crisp, clear, and fast. on wiki page: Screen: 9.7" E Ink Triton 800 x 600 color pixel touchscreen, 100 ppi (200dpi) Is it 1600x1200 or 800x600? |
