So I guess an e-ink display would not be good with my book reading habits then. I will often scroll a few lines at a time and that sounds power expensive.

It would still only need to refresh fast enough to keep up with your line reading rate, right? Couldn’t be much more than 1 fps.

Oh, that's not what I was thinking about. I was thinking about its power efficiency coming from not being to update the screen. Scrolling would force a lot more updates on it.

You just have to read your books like you would read a book.
