Bottom line: you can drastically increase refresh rate but you loose contrast.
And yes, way too less resources into R&D, people just don't get it. It's just like nowadays everybody likes glossy vs mate LCDs. It's frustrating because all of the problems can be solved: refresh rate, size, color. I have been waiting for years (at least it feels like it!) to code on an e-ink! (And then take notes on a paper-thin one but I'm gonna stop here... :)
The closest to hacking on an e-ink are people transforming their kindle DX into a screen with GNU Screen or even VNC (Don't try it). The loveliest project involves the Raspberry Pi: http://www.ponnuki.net/2012/09/kindleberry-pi/ http://www.ponnuki.net/2012/09/kindleberry-pi/
