Comparison with phones and tablets makes sense because consumers use them for the same purpose as e-readers, reading e-books. They are an alternative even though LCD/OLED is inferior to EInk for reading in terms of eye strain, etc. People still prefer multi-function devices and EInk has so far been unable to produce displays that are competitive for multi-function devices.
I don’t think there’s a conspiracy at EInk or among its shareholders to intentionally make less money or sell less products. Their annual report, which describes a strategy and goal of improving the technology and expanding sales, suggests the opposite. [0]
