YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

The market for E Ink tablets reached a pivotal moment this week with reMarkable's unveiling of its new Paper Pro () now with color E Ink, not just blackandwhite. Now the big question is whether Amazon will join the trend with a color Kindle ereader or Kindle Scribe. The technology enabling the shift from blackandwhite to color is the Gallery 3 color display () , from E Ink Holdings () , a company that spun out of the MIT Media Lab in 1997. On this episode of the GeekWire Podcast, we learn more from Timothy O’Malley () , associate vice president of U.S. operations at E Ink, about the evolution of the technology and the growing applications for E Ink displays.
