From Wikipedia: "The E Ink technology is a monochrome (4 level greyscale) electronic paper display device which changes reflectivity by moving microscopic black and white particles held within spherical microcapsules."
Which means that it's reflective, like paper, rather than like a normal screen. Apparently they look great.
Would you please stop posting things I have to then add to my shopping list? I'll pencil this one in under the exoskeleton power suit, a room temperature super conductor and most of everything listed in here. So much stuff...
