Apart from the new screen the device appears to be absolutely
identical to its predecessor, the
Inkpad Color 2, which was released only a couple of month ago, in June 2023.
A representative for the company
commented on the situation in another forum. According to him, the
Inkpad Color 2 sold much better then expected, but unfortunately they could not continue its production, because E-Ink was not able to deliver more of the
Kalaido Plus displays.
Instead they had to opt for the new
Kalaido 3 color displays as an alternative. So in order to avoid confusion they renamed the device.
The Inkpad Color 3 can be
ordered for €319 and is set to ship within 3 weeks.
