I guess that changing the paper displays cost a lot more than people imagine when you include all the backend jobs for distribution.

Being able to change the sign quickly/often for new advertisers might also bring in more money. E.g. you can now sell different advertisements on Friday versus other weekdays, and more specialized Christmas advertisement.

With eInk, an advertiser can also change the ads based upon who is walking/driving down the street.
