Yeah trouble is those use a lot of power, from what I heard. I'm satisfied with a usable e-reader that can flip pages at tolerable speed.
Well I would assume less powerful ones should take up less power. Also, don't normal LED displays also require this, or sometimes more computation to calculate the pixels?
