Am I missing something, or does that mean pure grey?

Engadget did a poor job explaining this. . .

This is E-ink not a normal display, essentially a display that is designed to replicate paper, the display should look almost exactly like ink on paper and should be very easy on the eyes compared to LCD displays. The contrast ratio is relative to the ink versus the background.

Also the display is static, so there is no flickering. The science behind it is that the upper half of the screen is charged and is able to attract beads of ink, these beads stick to the surface when charge (the image it wants to display).ink o]]>Jan 17th 2007 1:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/16/toshiba-matsushita-electronic-paper-alternative-hits-mass-produc/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/16/toshiba-matsushita-electronic-paper-alternative-hits-mass-produc/

I am a technical and professional writing student at San Francisco State University. I'm working on a GIANT project about electronic paper for a class.

I found this thread here and I was wondering if anyone interested in this topic, who lives around the bay area, might be willing to subject themselves to a (brief) interview.

There must be someone around? I'm trying to graduate college already. I'm a nice person. I am 35 years old.

Thanks,
