Is there an e-paper option, at all, with some sort of toggle for lighting/backlight/etc?
I realize this is contrary to the power saving, but reading e-paper in the dark is tough.
- perryizgr8 3y agoKindles usually have a very nice backlight that you can turn on. It works quite well and doesn't seem to diminish the screen's paper like characteristics.
- crtasm 3y agoI think GP knows you can get an ereader with a backlight, they're asking about a watch form-factor.
- sonicanatidae 3y agoIn this case, both. :)
- crtasm 3y ago:) I can add that Kobo Clara 2E has a nice backlight
- sonicanatidae 3y agoI'll check it out. While the Kindle itself isn't a bad tablet, I want Amazon to drive off a cliff in a flaming shitwagon, so non-Amazon options are preferred. Thanks!
- crtasm 3y agoHa! I feel similarly, if not as eloquently. Installed https://github.com/koreader/koreader https://github.com/koreader/koreader on mine + enabled SSH server.
- sonicanatidae 3y agoThat sounds like a fun little project. Thanks!
