Title: Looking at decent e-ink devices to write notes on, I cannot understand why they&#x27;re so expensive. For the price of a remarkable 2, for instance, you could buy an iPad which supports note-taking, and much more.<p>I know there are some advantages to e-ink displays, but I don&#x27;t think that&#x27;s enough to justify the high price tag on these readers&#x2F;note-taking devices.<p>There&#x27;s also hidden costs involved, such as buying new tips for the e-ink pencils.<p>Has the e-ink industry reached a dead-end where patents are impeding progress, or are there other reasons involved?
