I like this idea, also an analog e-ink wrist watch (by analog I mean displaying two hands on a dial) with the ability to show alerts from a connected phone & unlock that phone would be cool. Of course an optimus style e-ink keyboard would be awesome. For all these simple uses I think higher contrast ratios would be more important than color or refresh improvements. Full color e-ink could revolutionize photo frames and still not need refresh improvements.
What could we do with an e-ink display with current sizes, contrast, resolution & color (or lack thereof) but with near video refresh? I guess e-readers would be like a b/w iPad but can't think of any other uses, perhaps car / plane cockpit gauges would work better than current mixes of analog gauges and LCDs.
