@wyatt the closest I've seen was the #PixelQi panel mod for an:old #IdeaPad #Netbook…

But yeah, I want to see some proper #eInk screens with like #DVI / #DP (or even #HDMI) input…

@landley Right now I'm glad @krutonium made sufficient efforts to enable said #eBookReader to be feasibly target-able for @OS1337.

• Cuz even tho I'm not @TechConnectify I do like #eInk and can see the merits of #transflective screens.

Yes, I'm still mad about #PixelQi getting acquired.by #3M and ceasing to offer their cool screens and yes I still want that PixelQi-swapped #IdeaPad-#Netbook…

• Why can't we have nice things?

@rl_dane granted, as @TechConnectify points out this is propably due to the use of #eInk as a tech for monitors being nieche and big panels being more of an exception than norm.

• I'm still mad #3M decided to pull #PixelQi off the market post-aquisition because it combines the advantages of #LCD & eInk with fewer drawbacks than either alone...

Alas one could in theory #DIY cheaper eInk Monitors if one accepts seconds-per-frame instead of frames per second as well as being willing to fiddle around with a @RaspberryPi / #Pi0 v1.3 and shove that #HDMI2CSI adapter on so it bssically displays a captured #HDMI signal in fullscreen.

@nomeata I miss #PixelQi and their #Transflective screens.

• Maybe one day someone will build #eInk panels that are drop-in for #laptops and #tablets.

I've already seen #eInk monitors, but they are exensive af (espechally given their specs!)...

• That being said, eInk is still an awesome tech and I really want to see it become more mainstream besides #eReader|s!
