@chefjeff short answer: they ran out of money

@noiob oh dang, that sucks. e-ink seems like a very interesting selling point for it too
@chefjeff it's not eInk, it's a Sharp memory LCD that needs very little power to keep its state but can also easily show fluid 60fps animation
@noiob ah, misread the article then. sounds very cool, sucks that they went bankrupt
@chefjeff ePaper ≠ eInk, eInk is the company that owns the patent for those paper-like displays that retain their image without power, ePaper is a generic term that can be used for anything
@noiob aah, til
@noiob what happened to them?
