I don't see Mirasol taking off as an ereader display. I think cost will be the stumbling block.
Kindle will probably stick with PVI's color e-ink display (PVI makes the current Kindle displays). To make the PVI dispay a touchscreen all it needs is pressure sensors that sit behind the display (so the display is not obscured), kind of like those developed by Touchco Technology (which Amazon bought out last year).
PVI is slated to mass produce these displays at the end of the year.
