I have been following Pixel Qi for a bit, and they came out pretty large in CES annoucing the screens were now shipping in products.
I think what Pixel Qi is doing will turn EInk into old technology… the Nintendo 64 of displays. LCDs with refresh rates at the same level as EInk, with crazy low power consumption, and with colour! Whoa. Thinking about this kind of display in a Peek makes me giddy. More so the fact they are producing a DIY kit for hobbyists appeals to my hacky side.
I also recommend reading up on the founder, Mary Lou Jepsen. She was the CTO of the One Child One Laptop project and keeps a blog here.
