I would rather read text books on an e-reader not a tablet.
The specs of most e-readers are low. Is the screen that costly? Is this the reason for them being that expensive? Or is it lack of demand?
I think they are really worth it, though. Now some 13 inch models even accept video input, so you can potentially use it as a terminal / PDF screen.
It's mostly the screen. Manufacturing costs scale non-linearly with area due to defect rate. I think they are really worth it, though. Now some 13 inch models even accept video input, so you can potentially use it as a terminal / PDF screen.

I don't think the eink screens are that costly. It may have something to do with the demand.
This is ridiculously expensive https://remarkable.com And the Sony Digital Paper is expensive too.
I would love to see more phone cases with eink screens.

I wish they would make defective units available at a lower price. I don't mind some stuck pixels if it means I can get the reader half off.
