I would LOVE if E-Ink monitors became a thing. Spending all day indoors sucks. I'd love to be able to work outside in the sun for an hour or two.

- singularity2001 8y agoTried it this summer with 13'' Onyx Boox 2 as hdmi display and standalone. Both worked as expected, but somehow getting things done didn't really work well.
- rubicon33 8y agoInteresting. Nice to know someone has used the 13" Onyx outside for work. Curious - why didn't it work for you?
- singularity2001 8y agoNot onyx fault: It was just too hot;) Display is perfect in sun, but contrast not optimal in shade, so I couldn't escape the burn. Next time I try a 20m hdmi cable with normal display set to max in the shade.
- LyndsySimon 8y agoI work outdoors every day when it’s warm enough, from a hammock. I use a 13” MBP. As long as you’re in the shade it’s great. Polarized sunglasses help as well, and I have a color scheme for my terminal that’s dark-on-light that I switch to when it’s bright.
- rubicon33 8y agoYea I work outside in the shade as well sometimes. It works pretty well with a bright monitor, but you still have to be in the shade. I'd like to be able to soak up a little sun, while working.
