A Kindle is Electronic Paper?

In the early 2000s I read about a remarkable new product called electronic paper. However, I expected it to be free standing and something plastic I could wrap around my wrist like I could a real piece of paper.

However, I just realized today that a Kindle and like devices are actually a protected form of Electronic paper. I just hadn't realized what I was looking at because I had been thinking of Kindles and other similar devices as being like Ipads and laptops and tablets but they are not really, they only appear to be. When it isn't color or sometimes even when it is it is Electronic paper like in a Kindle.
