If you're in the market for a $1,900 color E Ink monitor, one of them exists now


Display has a nice design and plenty of ports, but color E Ink has downsides.

But that isn't stopping device manufacturers from exploring the technology, and today, Onyx International has announced that it has a $1,900 color E Ink monitor that you can connect to your PC or Mac. These are notable mostly because they combine the benefits of E Ink—text that's easy on the eyes and long battery life—and access to multiple bookstores and other content sources via Google Play, rather than tying you to one manufacturer's ecosystem as Amazon's Kindles or other dedicated e-readers do.
