e-paper != e-ink (which is a specific type of e-paper)

so, if e-paper != e-ink is e-paper "a digital screen you can read text on" ? or.. I'm confused. (actual question not being a jerk)

I, too expected an e-ink screen and was disappointed to find it was an LCD.

Wikipedia seems to think that e-paper and e-ink are in fact the same thing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_paper

I read it as the screen maintains the last contents written and generally operates with low power requirements while screen content is not being written. Per the data sheet, to have the screen in a state where it gets all of its pixels written once every 30 seconds, it consumes 135μW of power.
