Hurry up colour e-ink, and rid us of this crap. One kindle/nook size colour e-ink device, that's what we're all waiting for, surely - at a decent price or available on a plan. Sold.
@AstroSeven the Pixel Qi (chee) is what you mean and it's still not like e-ink because it has a refresh rate. The glory of e-ink is that it is really there, not being "refreshed" 60-240 times per second. color e-ink won't help with refresh rates because in order for it to really be e-ink it needs to hold an image without power to the screen and the image needs to be ambient light illuminated. I think that till we get real tech (beyond PixelQi) this will be the best of both, just that it only is useful for students and people who read books or online newspapers.
The whole line-up consists of the $60 Amps in-ears and $100 Tracks on-ear headphones, which both also come in slightly souped-up and pricier HD variations at $100 and $130, respectively.
