e-ink screen raspberry pi compatible
Hi forum,
I'm disappointed with the current e-books i used and owned. I would like to build my own: a raspberry pi (zero, b+, whatever) running debian, a touch e-ink screen and i would just use some software installed on the pi to read my books (calibre?). Would you be aware of some e-ink screens that would be best suitable ? I don't know if waveshare/eink or adafruit are more or less compatible for such task. This topic was discussed in past threads but it there were no specifications. Thank you for the help ! |

Too expensive, too much power consumption and other issues.
A Kobo is better. I've had two models of Pi and built two "proof of concept" ARM based handhelds running Debian in the "day job". |
