Hacker News Reader

If anyone wants to play with bw e-ink displays in the form of e-book reader you easily can. I've ported mainline Linux to PocketBook Touch Lux 3 and I'm now playing with making userspace apps. You can just pick the kernel load it to uSD card, put it in the device and you'll be able to boot Arch Linux or whatever and play around.

Where does one purchase this e-ink reader? I can't find them anywhere, and their own website link for it seems broken.

This one is not manufactured anymore, it was replaced with Touch Lux 4. (it's probably almost the same thing inside, with very small differences, most of their eink readers are A13 based, even some of the expensive hi-res ones).

You can buy it second hand, or with a broken display and replace the display (that's what I did).

I would really love to have lichess and sgt puzzles on an e-ink device.
