Why this instead of eg. M5Paper [0]? Similar price, been thinking to buy something like that, but delaying the decision, hoping PineNote[1] comes out soon :D

- robertlangdon 5y agoFair. Personally I am not a big fan of touch because of the latency in response and paperd.ink is open-source. PineNote is a whole different beast though.
- konschubert 5y agoI will just shamelessly add to the list this wooden 7.5 inch display that I have been working on over the past two years: https://www.invisible-computers.com/programmable-e-paper-screen.html https://www.invisible-computers.com/programmable-e-paper-scr... Price-wise it's in between the M5Paper and the PineNote, but personally I think it's the best-looking one for the smart display use case. :P
- konschubert 5y agoAlso, since this is HN, I'd like to mention that I am looking for collaborators/co-founders to work with me on this project. You can contact me at mail@konstantinschubert.com

I think at this point it's just a matter of ecosystem. > Similar price, been thinking to buy something like that, but delaying the decision, hoping PineNote[1] comes out soon :D Bare in mind this won't just be a microcontroller but an entire fully capable Linux computer. It's really a significant step up.
