I think this is pretty cool. I have never actually read a book on E-ink but I imagine it is more friendly to read. But I also know I could not browse the internet and do stuff that involves more visuals and less graphics on E-ink, so would bet this could be pretty cool.
Some company needs to jump on this and build a legitimate mass market e-reader/slate that the UI & hardware is very user friendly to switching back and forth depending on what you are doing...
This hints at why I have not bought an E-reader... I like the idea, but I don't want to be carrying around a device that IS JUST good at reading text. To me it seems so 1990.
