   Sorry I don't get it. Do you mean people spend huge amounts of money to promote the product? And thanks! Just wanted to make a minimum lovable product.

   If only! Maybe when the patents finally expire, it'll take off like 3D printing did.

    They use recycled kindles hence the color and touchscreen I guess.

    As commented by another user, we were selling for 89$ with free 3d printed enclosure and free shipping. However, the size of screen is smaller.

    Hey thank you so much!

    That seems to be one strategy. For us, we had about 500 people who filled our very first user research form and we kept a target of minimum 300 orders to be able to manufacture the units and at least break even. Turns out, not even half of

    (OP here) Update: We sold out the first batch of paperd.ink! Thanks to each one of our supporters, we managed to pull this off because of you. As next step, we would love to talk with the users once they have paperd.ink in their hands. And

    Looks confusing imo. Exact dimensions are mentioned here though https://docs.paperd.ink/docs/hardware/hardware/#dimensions

    Thanks! One unit will have a devboard (PCB) with e-paper display connected on the front side. And there's also the enclosure set which has a front panel, back panel, 4 buttons and 2 stands (check this to get a better idea https:/

    Sure thing I'll add in FAQ soon. If you do not want to solder then https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09FLDCJCB is a good option as the connector is directly compatible with paperd.ink. But it has a lower capacity. For a

    Fill in the first two entries for Title and URL and have "Show HN: " in the beginning of the title, that should work (or Show HN submissions, not sure about other kinds of posts.

    Fair. 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.

    by robertlangdon 4y ago

    It does not. Touch screen e-paper displays (like Kindles) are too expensive, consume significantly more power and have a noticeable lag in the response when you try to use them. paperd.ink is more of an output device.

    Thanks! We're selling the dev board for 89USD along with a free 3d printed enclosure and free shipping. Edit: typos

    Indeed. Fun fact: e-ink is the name of the brand whereas e-paper display is the general term.

    Oh no need to desolder, just disable some MOSFETs usings GPIOs in the code. The MOSFETs enable/disable parts of the circuit like SD card, e-paper, battery monitoring, etc

    Sure you can. We wanted something like this for ourselves and thought of sharing it with the world. Thankfully some of them liked it too
