So is this cooler than e-ink? Cheaper maybe? Something?

Talk about having a long battery life.]]>Apr 17th 2006 1:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/17/citizen-lcd-retains-image-even-when-off/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/17/citizen-lcd-retains-image-even-when-off/

Citizen made a watch that used an e-ink display, it only directed power to the display once a minute (hours, minutes, no seconds). The display was flexible too.]]>Apr 17th 2006 1:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/17/citizen-lcd-retains-image-even-when-off/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/17/citizen-lcd-retains-image-even-when-off/Apr 17th 2006 1:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/17/citizen-lcd-retains-image-even-when-off/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/17/citizen-lcd-retains-image-even-when-off/Apr 17th 2006 1:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/17/citizen-lcd-retains-image-even-when-off/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/17/citizen-lcd-retains-image-even-when-off/Apr 17th 2006 2:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/17/citizen-lcd-retains-image-even-when-off/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/17/citizen-lcd-retains-image-even-when-off/possibility to make such devices is well known.
and it's not the same thing what Kent Displays makes.]]>Apr 17th 2006 6:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/17/citizen-lcd-retains-image-even-when-off/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/17/citizen-lcd-retains-image-even-when-off/Apr 17th 2006 7:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/17/citizen-lcd-retains-image-even-when-off/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/17/citizen-lcd-retains-image-even-when-off/Apr 17th 2006 7:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/17/citizen-lcd-retains-image-even-when-off/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/17/citizen-lcd-retains-image-even-when-off/Apr 17th 2006 7:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/17/citizen-lcd-retains-image-even-when-off/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/17/citizen-lcd-retains-image-even-when-off/Apr 17th 2006 10:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/17/citizen-lcd-retains-image-even-when-off/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/17/citizen-lcd-retains-image-even-when-off/ Now which applications stand to benefit from this technology? Reasonably, I only see a small niche market of LCD devices which demand long battery life, for everything else the cost trade off which most like favor older LCD technology. The only application which comes to mind is low power consumption portable marketing displays.
