> E-ink owns the parents, the fabs and the secret sauce to profitably producing quality e-ink film in good yelds. fabs? Jesus H Christ. Based on just that one sentence, I can guarantee you have 0 experience and 0 direct knowledge of the display industry. Your statement is the equivalent to saying "Microsoft owns the parents (sp), the fabs and the secret sauce to profitably producing quality operating systems in good yelds (sp).

Would be nice if you also had an argument with your statement and not just mockery, to prove me wrong.

  > Would be nice if you also had an argument with your statement and not just mockery, to prove me wrong. So you make a massive unsubstantiated claim and I have to prove you wrong? I see the way your logic works. Lets see. You've made the claim that "E-ink owns the parents, the fabs and the secret sauce to profitably producing quality e-ink film in good yelds.". So let me ask a simple question. Since you say E-ink owns all the fabs, can you show me the location of even one E-ink fab? Here's a hint for the answer. E-Ink is a fabless company. That may confuse you so lets make it clearer. It means they don't have ANY fabs. In fact, I don't even know of even one electrophoretic material producer who has a fab. Would you like to try again and provide a more accurate statement that reflects your level of ACTUAL knowledge of the display industry?

    Mate, you're going completely off the rails and I'm not sure if you're actively trolling or are misinformed and in denial. E-ink is a manufacturer of the E-ink pigment particles and the EPD film that's then sold to various display manufacturers where it gets sandwiched between glass, an ITO top electrode and a TFT bottom layer connected to a CoG (chip on glass), basically like any other LCD TFT display but instead of liquid crystal you have the famous patented E-ink pigment. Those EPD display manufacturers all depend on buying the e-ink film manufactured by E-ink, at their fab in ... drum-roll ... Taiwan (big surprise). None of these EPD display company could make displays by themselves without the film they buy from E-ink. Just read their website [1] and article [2] before spewing more nonsense [1] "E Ink manufacturers a number of EPD films, with different attributes depending on application needs" [1] https://www.eink.com/e-ink-film.html https://www.eink.com/e-ink-film.html [2] " As part of E Ink’s manufacturing process, microcapsules of ink coat plastic film. The film is then dried, inspected, rerolled, and sent on for further processing."

      "Those EPD display manufacturers all depend on buying the e-ink film manufactured by E-ink, at their fab in ." You think a film is manufactured at a fab? Do you even know what a fab is? Did you think a fab was like a manufacturing plant with vats of liquids? Jesus H Christ.
