We have working prototypes of smaller displays in house, but I do not think E Ink offers large format solution. There is one caveat with color - the refresh rates are still not quite there yet (we've seen ~5-10s for the 4096 color version), but we've seen considerable improvment recently.

I think it's just a good use-case away. Perhaps we'll see the screens break out in the education space first and then the rest of industry as well, but we're looking at various applications with color and we might be first.

It seems to me like even a 5m refresh period would be fine for an art display? I doubt I'd want to change pieces more than once a day.

I'm probably an outlier, but I'm an all digital person and my walls are bare due to the size, backlighting and power cables of the recent art frame fad products. I've been waiting with bated breath for consumer ACeP screens. I have a lot of artwork that I don't think needs smooth gradients, even just a bit of color would be wonderful.

Anyways I just wanted to drop in and say I'd definitely buy something (and probably for a multiple of what current digital art frames go for).

On that note though, all I've seen of ACeP are promo photos and I don't quite trust promo photos. If you've any experience with them, is there anything you can say regarding how they actually perform visually?

We have ACeP in our labs and it looks really good while displaying images. It's not high end glossy print colorful, but it's very very close. More than enough for most applications. It's also a stark difference to the color-filter variants that were available previousy. There the contrast was poor due to the filter they overlaid over a regular E Ink reflective surface.

You're making me turn positively blue.
