The obvious application for this is not a stand-alone monitor but should be part of a tablet or laptop/tablet hybrid. Then the small screen makes much more sense and its size won't contradict the relief to eyestrain that it is intended to provide.

It's really too bad you fail to mention the abysmal refresh rate of e-ink, then at the end of the article play up the high refresh rates of completely different technologies. Pretty scummy sales technique there.

I want these to make it to stuff like the Kindle. That's where it would be really popular.

I wish they make 8"-10" tablet with this technology, equipped with pen/stylus and kindle/pdf/cbr compatible and capable to open word/excel/powerpoint so I could read book, take a note, review reports, and show some presentation while on the move,

For this kind of job I think that 12" is to big/cumbersome/heavy to held with one hand and operate with other.

19" and up would be ideal for desktop use. A lot of office workers and academics would be very happy with an e-ink only monitor. Refresh rate wouldn't be an issue in most of those applications.

The 4096 color limit would not make it suitable for most movie watching. (Although I would imagine some animated programs would look fine). As a book reading device, it would rock.
