Yep... And long overdue for being retrieved and de-Borged to see the
true light of GNU/Linux.
:-)
Had a glance at some of the present e-readers and e-ink displays and...
Really like the zero power to maintain the display and hence the
excellent battery life.
But:
Mainly monochrome only and no RGB or CYMK colour;
Relatively low res;
e-ink displays are surprisingly expensive for even mediocre res.
So... The chromebook anew looks to be good!
That's an old project to be soon dusted off :-)
Thanks,
Martin
