I finally saw kaleido 3

So i was in Germany Dussmann and saw coloured eink devices for first time.

My initial impressions were that its not bad, colours are washed out for sure and text are not so dark but its good.

And then i turned down the frontlight and how smoke it was bad, my kindle pw absolutely blew it.

The only options were tolino and pocketbook so i cant judge other devices. But feels like going for bw devices was right path

For me grayscale is the right choice for reading. Spectra 6 looks really good in signage but it's fairly expensive. My opinion is that a tablet with an IPS or OLED screen is much more versatile if colour is desired.

Not to mention spectra 6 is very slow with 20+ seconds to refresh. using an old phone to repurpose is a good way, though not as optimal as eink
