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.
Love my transflective Garmin watch... But they seem to be moving towards oled too...
I have one of theirs too now, got it because great battery life.
Well, shit.
