I'd love to have a 24" or 30" USB-driven eInk screen or three for fairly static stuff like documentation. Running a terminal on an eInk display is probably less painful than repeatedly bashing your toes into a cinder block. Probably.<p>An iPhone would probably make a far better portable screen.<p>Cool hack, though.
Simon Sharwood provided a quite deep and comprehensive review of my post:<p><a href="http://www.theregister.co.uk/2012/09/11/kindleberry_pi/" rel="nofollow">http://www.theregister.co.uk/2012/09/11/kindleberry_pi/</a><p>The part I prefer the most is when he uses 'long suit' instead of 'strong suit'.
I was hoping for a lower level hack, but it _is_ neat.<p>That said, I still have a couple of broken laptops here and want to check out if I can connect the lcd displays to my Raspberry Pi in the future. When I don't fail at basic googling skills to get past all the inverse projects (replacing a broken screen instead of reusing a working screen from a laptop).
