Seriously, that price is insane for what you get. That costs more than what gets you a top tier 32” 4K OLED screen with a high refresh rate.


Hopefully it's just a start? I would probably love to replace my displays with a high fidelity e-paper, I think it would make working much more enjoyable.


> its slow refresh rate makes it problematic for desktop computing tasks like browsing the web.

Hmm, I'm not sure what I'd use something like this for. Might be better as a phone as a follow up to their phone-size Palma e-reader.

Sorry, but how are you evaluating that? You'd get this because you want a non-emissive display, so what other non-emissive displays are you comparing it against?

Yes, if you want better color acuity, refresh rates, or cost-per-inch, you don't want eInk.

I don't think that is news.

Otherwise you are a motorcycle rider calling cars too expensive.


My position is that you are giving up too much for that one single feature.
