I talked to my wife constantly about how badly I want an e-ink monitor, they’re just still so expensive for the specs I want haha. I’d take a solid 24”, maybe 21”, b&w 30hz at this point if the price was right (sub-$500).

Yeah, to get a 24" e-ink monitor anywhere near that price, we’d need much higher production volumes. Right now, it just isn’t mass-produced enough to bring costs down to the sub-$500 range.

		Since you are really into that stuff, could you please share your opinion about the widely shared view that e-ink remains artificially expensive due to patents ? Or point to reading material you find truthful. Thanks !
