I would love to have this too. E-ink has seen some pretty high success, in e-readers and e-ink picture displays, so why not have a low-end e-ink laptop
Because the main use case for most people - browsing the internet - sucks on e-ink. Scrolling is horrible.
Typing would suck even more, the advantage of e-ink shows if you have mostly static content, not dynamic.
The delay between the key-press and the visual response is intolerable.
