It didn't jump off the newsstand as much as I'd hoped -- the flashing text is cool, but not especially bold. And I'm curious to see how long the batteries will last. During the <a href="http://journalists.org/2008conference/" rel="nofollow">ONA conference</a>, e-ink was discussed at the "10 emerging technologies" sessions. I was surprised that very few journalists had heard of e-ink (many had heard of Kindle), and plan to take the magazine to work this week to see what others think.
