Why this instead of eg. M5Paper [0]?

Similar price, been thinking to buy something like that, but delaying the decision, hoping PineNote[1] comes out soon :D

Fair. Personally I am not a big fan of touch because of the latency in response and paperd.ink is open-source. PineNote is a whole different beast though.

I know that this is completely off-topic but I need to know: how do you make a HN post that has a link _and_ text at the same time? Seems like this form[1] does not allow that. [1] https://news.ycombinator.com/submit

Fill in the first two entries for Title and URL and have "Show HN: " in the beginning of the title, that should work (or Show HN submissions, not sure about other kinds of posts.

> paperd.ink has a 4.2” e-paper display If your target market is the whole world, please also provide dimensions using the metric system. For most of the world, inches don't mean anything. 4.2” is approx. 10.7 cm.

Ah missed this. Have updated now. Thanks!

I'm a staunch metric supporter, but to be fair I have never encountered a country that measures screens as anything other than inches.

Still it’s nice to do to give you an idea (and vice versa to imperial)
