Typing on one of these screens isn't that fun. Clarity isn't so good and the refresh rate is bad. Want to select some text? It's a nightmare. Cursors are barely possible. Many of the ways we've come to expect to interact with computers are not possible even on a touchscreen e-paper display. And I'm a fan! E-paper just doesn't seem ready for that type of application right now. It's for displaying big pieces of text - not interacting with text, not showing images, not writing on, nothing. Its primary purpose, which it is fulfilling pretty well actually, is showing a page full of words. It's not very well suited to anything else. If the technology improves (primarily in contrast and refresh rate) I'm with you - but for now, it's not a good option.
