@pavel I kinda want it in a machine from this decade. There's probably a way to hack it into a thinkpad

I have the same need and am still hoping for https://www.crowdsupply.com/modos-tech/modos-paper-monitor or some other way to retrofit a eink screen in a free software compatible laptop.

@martijnbraam Picky :-). I'm using it as an ssh terminal, and that's still ok. Unfortunately, it looks like battery may be at the end of useful life.

@martijnbraam I find it very sad that OLPC's display technology did not make it anywhere else. Its color rendering is not great, and it is quirky display, but readability on direct sunlight is great and that's important outdoors. #olpc
