Yeah, to get a 24" e-ink monitor anywhere near that price, we’d need much higher production volumes. Right now, it just isn’t mass-produced enough to bring costs down to the sub-$500 range.

Since you are really into that stuff, could you please share your opinion about the widely shared view that e-ink remains artificially expensive due to patents ?

Or point to reading material you find truthful. Thanks !
