We lived with that because of the technology of the time and cost. An e +nk display of the equivalent size of a TV is gonna be expensive as fuck. And not do better than it’s traditional tv counterpart at video output for viewing. The other person mentioned monitors and those make sense because you’re generally using them for computer stuff which isn’t traditionally movies, television, or games. And if all you want to do is scroll the web and use it for spreadsheets, you’re fine there.

But gamers aren’t going to buy an e-ink display for gaming. And generally people who want to watch TV and movies won’t either.

I’d watch a movie on my phone before I tried it on e-ink.
