I dunno, after the steaming pile that the Dasun Color Monitor turned out to be (some notes of mine here [1]), I’m kind of weary of this e-ink thing. The problem isn’t just ghosting and slowness, I could deal with that. It’s also reflective, very poor contrast, bad dithering, awful color reproduction.

One would have to hold it in ones hand first.

…very cool looking project though.

That’s not really the point. The point is that companies will sell these new technologies and make the product seem great in their marketing material. Which for screens can be especially annoying.

At least for an apple I can ran into the next store and find out that yes the screen is nice, but it’s still pretty reflective.
