Does anyone know if this is a reputable group? My understanding is that indiegogo is like Kickstarter. In that you are merely making a donation with the hope they will be able to follow through and give you the product as a thank you for supporting them.

If you check the Indiegogo history for them, Dasung has released several previous e-ink monitors and you can find reviews of them at the various tech news sites. There are even usually a few of their previous monitors to be found on eBay so their products aren't vaporware, though one has to wonder a bit why their owners are selling them off.

electrophoretic displays, by the nature of their physics, are slow. If you're reading a book it is the best thing ever. But anything else where you want "interactivity" and it is not going to be usable in the long term.

According to their promotion they have already released a 13.3 inch paperlike display and sold it to customers in more than 70 countries as well as an e-ink tablet.

So I’d expect there to be a few reviews available of their products.

From my experience: Indiegogo has less quality control. If you are running a scam or physically impossible product, use Indiegogo.
