This is just gorgeous and begs the question: what is wrong with e-ink and their non-marketing of their technology?
You can get LCDs in almost any form and size for very little money, but e-ink displays are still rare and expensive. I love my kindle (ironically even Amazon seems to be very slow in enhancing it), but I would love larger e-ink screens and display devices. Like with good old black and white displays, there is zero penalty for running them 24/7.
The newspaper is a great implemantation of this, but I also would like to have a large e-ink display for displaying b/w photographs.
And of course, a reader, large enough to cover the area of an open book (so almost A3) would be a dream. Displaying a double-page of any print at 100% would make for the ultimate e-reading experience. Would be the ideal accessory to any programmers desk, but also for any scientist.
So the big question is: why does all of this not exist?
