Surely it's both.

1) Product has to exist - and now it does tick 2) Has to be useful tick 3) Has to have possibility of being make cheaper by mass production no idea 4) Has to be put into mass production depends on 3

So we're currently stuck on 3.

Not sure there's much demand for a colour e-ink tablet - but maybe could be layered with a transparent OLED. I'd cough up an extra £100 for that. Normal tablet - with reading mode. Spend a while looking at static image, OLED turns off, e-ink layer fires up. Scroll down and the OLED takes over.



That would be pretty cool. Could the e-ink just be set to white while the LCD did it’s thing and the LCD to clear while e-ink does it’s thing?
