    I’m really keen on one of these displays eventually, as I can set aside the issues with refresh rate and colour accuracy, but the price needs to drop way down. It needs to be competitive with regular LCD monitors.

    I look at terminals all day for work, this would make it so much more comfortable.

      If you’re coding with them you can already try small ones, unless you need bigger than A4 size for each it isn’t insanely expensive.

      Might not need anything except economies of scale. But getting that is the problem.

      Tablet sized eink displays found a niche that couldn’t quite be displaced by smartphones and regular tablets. That let them have a market for getting costs down.

      There would need to be a similarly wide use case to get the price down on larger eink displays.
