This would be absolutely amazing for a productivity device. I've rooted my Kindle Paperwhite and set it up with a terminal and used it to SSH into my laptop just to try it, but the latency makes it a bit irritating just to keep up with typing. To be able to use a fully graphical environment in e-paper, even in grayscale, would be amazing. I built a cyberdeck that primarily uses a pair of XReal AR glasses as its displ…

Even without the advantages of e-ink, a display which one can view _anywhere_ is a compelling thing, which opens up a lot of possibilities --- my favourite Windows device was a Fujitsu Stylistic ST-4110 w/ a transflective LCD, which I used as my main computer, e-book reader, notepad (writing/drawing/annotating with a stylus), and map display when traveling. The transflective display eliminated issues regarding reflec…
Not sure I understand what I'm looking at. At 0:47, which one is the e-ink, left hand side or right hand side? Initially I thought the e-ink was on the left hand side, but it has SO MUCH GLARE. Also on the intro at 0:10 you can see the glare move across as they tilt it. More glare: 0:26 (left) 0:28 (top left). I have an e-ink reader and it has zero glare. I read it on the beach as clearly as paper, I'm not exaggerati…

Are you familiar with Sun Vision RLCD displays? They seem to get good reviews. Not cheap though: https://www.sunvisiondisplay.com/
Being Dutch I am proud to see NLNet and the EU financially supporting this project. We deny ourselves so much progress by forcing smart individuals with a passion into conglomerates that are merely busy destroying competition. Small to medium sized organizations have the biggest potential for innovation, and look what two people even can do.
wdym about EU funding this project, I see backer list and there are bunch of US citizen

Their big claim, at least it seems on quick glance, is in the controller, not the display. You can use any e-ink display with it. The display with glare that you're complaining about I think is just the cheap display they're including in the dev kit.
It's possible I just can't read.
