Web browser on Eink
I asked about the possibility of running a web browser on the Eink side. This was the response Entourage -
We are working on a conversion tool that will allow you to save web pages for viewing on the e-Ink screen. We don't think that the screen refreshes well enough to support web pages directly. I wonder if the tool will be generic enough to convert anything in to PDF. But this is progress. I am really starting to like these guys... kevin |

I know the original post is quite old, so I just thought I'd mention that the edge's built in browser does now indeed have a "send to e-ink" function and it works quite well. If you're on a web page and select this menu item, you are given the choice of converting to epub or pdf, and then within normally a few seconds the page is rendered on the eink side in one of these file formats. (ie it's not a browser on the e-ink side)
