Wonder if Amazon could buy them?
- yid 12y agoWow, did not know about that! What a shame that Amazon didn't go with the dual e-ink/LCD idea, given that they're practically singlehandedly responsible for e-ink going mainstream. Throw in free-with-Prime, Android, and a few carrier discounts (e.g. free data for a year) and I'd happily dump my iPhone in a heartbeat.
- scott_karana 12y ago> Throw in ... Android Huh? The Yotaphone already runs Android, and not an Amazon-crippled version at that. :)
- m_mueller 12y agoShouldn't it be possible to create an e-ink display behind a transparent LCD? Then you wouldn't need to flip anything anymore. I'm guessing that the backlight might be a problem, but maybe that could be integrated with the e-ink as well.
- kevinqi 12y agowhat a cool idea. It's hard to know how the user experience is without using it (eg. do you have to flip it back and forth manually often?), but the benefits of having an e-ink panel seems huge.
