There isn't a use case that I personally want, that couldn't be satisfied with transflective LCD instead of e-ink.
They are dirt cheap but only a handful of chinese manufacturers are using them.
On top of the e-ink IP stronghold, I think there is also a Product manager issue in consumer electronics. Everyone wants to show case Macbook-esque glossy displays whereas a large number of consumers want displays that they can use outdoors and without eye strain. Everybody complements garmins transflective displays but somehow nobody makes the leap of slapping them on phones or laptops.
