Wish I could also use this as external MacBook usb-c monitor so I can code during the day.

There are two options for that:

* Onyx Boox Mira and Mira Pro: https://shop.boox.com/products/mira

* Dasung Paperlike Monitors: https://shop.dasung.com/

Between them you can pick between multiple sizes and specs. I haven't tried either, but I have a number of Onyx Boox devices (a Palma phone sized one, and Nova Air small tablet sized one) and I'm very happy with their quality.

The devices seem nice, but their piracy makes me hesitant:

I've been happy with my 13.3" Dasung Paperlike HD-FT. I can imagine eventually getting a larger color e-ink monitor for office work, and a smaller one for travel.
