E Ink has been developing a full color tech they call ACeP. This tech has no color filter like Kaleido 3 so can run at full resolution and better contrast. Wonder if this tech will reach ereaders soon. Rumors are that Amazon is considering ACeP.

- futureshock 3y agoYes, current ACeP displays have an extremely slow refresh and low resolution. They are sold exclusively for digital signage. Potentially in the next few years, according to rumors there may be a version suitable for ereaders.
- mikepavone 3y agoThere was one on the market, but not from the well-known names: the Bigme Galy. Doesn't seem to be available anymore though and Bigme's site has no mention of it
- futureshock 3y agoInteresting. Yes looks like that ACeP screen had reasonable specs on paper with 300dpi and as low as 500ms color refresh. Seems like this tech could be getting closer. Reviews of the Galy were terrible though and it’s unclear how much of that was from the screen vs. the device around it. Still watching this space and holding out with my Kindle Paperwhite.
