Pebble's marketing campaign is so good, I'm still correcting people to this day. xD It's something they call "e-paper", but it's really a transflective LCD (remember those?). Nowhere like e-ink.

    Same. Transflective LCDs are great, and I really wish they got used more. Smartwatches are such a perfect application, yet everyone still slaps on energy-hungry oleds that literally degrade from the UV radiation of sunlight.

    But they have literally nothing in common with e-ink.
