The Innovator’s Dilemma supports your last paragraph but will likely make your first two paragraphs age poorly.

The tech will continue to improve if it finds its niche. Dynamic, low power, color informational signage displays are a big enough market by themselves to adopt and support enough product cycles to address shortcomings that advertisers have.

The potential for no mains power (e.g., small solar panel or a vibration energy harvesting power source) means virtually any flat wall could be turned into advertising inventory. Do accident lawyers need their ads to pop or just be displayed over and over again?

What you say could be correct for a lot of technologies, but not this one. E Ink tech do not have much traction because of "E Ink" the company and their patents. Basically it's highly proprietary and they dont want to give away control over know-how and production. Until major patents expire no one will it touch with a ten-foot pole.
