@joeycastillo bad reference to 2000s failed #Netbook designs aside:

An #OpenSource'd #eInk-based #eBook reader is really nice and yes I think this should've been te norm instead of 10+ kg of schoolbooks I had to carry in skool...

But yea a cheap and ooensources #eBook reader is nifty and I really could use that one.

Maybe I've to see if I can find one with #EL (#LEC) or warm-white #LED backlight that one could turn on/off.

Maybe even add an amber / green backlight to it?
