I'm sure it has been stated before but I do wonder why e-ink displays remain still so out of reach even though the sort of parents that were encumbering them have expired? It really does seem that anything that involves e-ink panels comes with a huge markup.

I think that the initial Eink tech wasn't really suited for a general purpose computer. There have been recent advancements that fixed a lot of the issues, but this technology is still new and expensive.

  The CLEARink product in that thread looks _amazing_. Super excited to see that come to market. I'd buy a dozen of those displays for pairings with Pi's around the house.
