If you're willing to take it a step further and have some experience with hardware (or you are willing to learn), you can even buy a bare e-ink screen and interface with it. For example, the ED060SC4 is cheap. The datasheet is not very helpful, but if you look carefully, you can find some drivers on github, or more generic tutorials on e-ink drivers.
http://essentialscrap.com/eink/ http://essentialscrap.com/eink/ is probably one of the most helpful resources out there if you want to do this.

- kbart 10y agoBuying e-ink screens for e-reader might be a problem. During the last project with e-ink screens, we had an explicit clause with supplier implying that these screens will not be used for e-readers. That was 3 years ago though, things might have changed since.

- tylerflick 10y agoThis is a great tutorial. Unfortunately the Espressif SDK it uses is out of date, and I was unable to get the source working with the current SDK.
