eInk Devices

[RivalGuy]

Saw this recently: https://www.xteink.com/products/xteink-x4 The xteink devices are small e-readers designed to magnetically attach to the back of your phone. I'm still planning on going with an Android devices for my next e-book, but these fill a really cool niche! Lets you separate out reading from your phone onto the better screen technology for barely any additional pocket volume.

There's also an open source firmware for it called Crosspoint: https://github.com/crosspoint-reader/crosspoint-reader

Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a way to use it to mirror your phone's screen or to send websites to it from the phone, but it's a neat form-factor, and I'm sure it'll be useful to a lot of people.

This one is more tech demo-y than useful, but it's conceptually cool!

Hopefully they only let you change it when the car is parked.

Erin just backed (pre-ordered in this case) one of these:

Basically an Altoid-tin project computer with eink, but the creator is solid and she's been following him for a while.
