Just found Carl Lampert's quote from the 2000 Annual meeting and he mentioned the shelf pricing, ebooks etc.

I'll check but I don't think E-Ink had their patents yet.

(2) The informational display market is growing at an explosive rate. The combined market for flat-panel displays and cathode-ray tubes (CRTs) is $43 billion, and this market is almost divided equally between the two. Dr. Lampert noted that projected revenue growth in the flat-panel industry is tremendous. Revenue is projected to grow from approximately $20 billion in 1999 to $73 billion by 2004. He also mentioned several products with growth potential that should be of interest to RFI and SPD technology: Notebook computers-projected growth rate $8 billion to $20 billion. Dr. Lampert stated that he expects to see a large capacity change in 2001 as a large number of manufacturing facilities are being built. Mobile phones-projected growth rate from $1.4 billion to $16 billion. Dr. Lampert noted that displays for mobile phones were becoming very significant-particularly those that are light weight with low power consumption. Print media-as an editor, Dr. Lampert stated that he is involved in this $100 billion publishing market. This market consists of books and newspapers with a revolution going on in the electronic book area. Electronic books enable you to load several novels onto a slim electronic book, reload new novels, stock market information, etc.. Dr. Lampert noted that we are beginning to see some e-Books coming into the marketplace. As a result, low-cost displays are very important for the growth of the e-Book market. Other growth-oriented products noted by Dr. Lampert were low information, large banner displays for expressways and grocery stores, and low-cost handheld computers which would enable employees to electronically change shelf pricing in grocery stores. Dr. Lampert noted that electronic pricing already exists in Europe and is viewed as a time-saving device for employees.
