==History== [[E Ink Corporation]] of E Ink Holdings Inc. released the first colored [[E Ink]] displays to be used in a marketed product. The [[Ectaco jetBook Color]] was released in 2012 as the first colored electronic ink device, which used E Ink's Triton display technology.<ref name="jetbookk12.com">{{cite web|url=http://www.jetbookk12.com/|title=Ebook reader for education - ebook for schools, students, middle school.

The jetBook Color costs roughly nine times more than other popular e-readers such as the Amazon Kindle.<ref name="jetbookk12.com"/><ref name="eink.com"/> As of January 2015, Prism had not been announced to be used in the plans for any e-reader devices.<ref name="gizmodo.com"/>
