    @p @hi i mean, there are tablets that one could use a Bluetooth keyboard with. But that’s not the same thing at all. To my knowledge the only Eink display on a laptop was a rear screen on a particular ThinkBook many years ago. I would straight up love a standard laptop with an Eink display.

        (to be clear i would love an e-ink laptop)
        (or even desktop)

        a picture of a composition notebook plugged into a keyboard with usb-c and a pencil laying next to it. It is silly and not realistic.

        @hi this is the dream. I think the closest we're reasonably near is external e-ink displays, but last I looked, just a few of the newer ones are doing the 30+hz refresh tricks.

        Excited for the thread to prove me wrong though.

          @hi shop.boox.com/collections/all-
          E-ink android tablets with usb-c (keyboard is working, most of the time).
          They violate gpl, but they have pretty good displays.

            @hi

            I have the Boox Go 6 e-reader tablet, which has browser and android app store.

            I don't know your full use case, but yes, I was able to plug in a USB C-to-C keyboard on it.

            A reddit discussion brought up considering a USB C hub for pass through charging, as the keyboard will draw power when plugged in faster than without.

            random amazon link for usb c hub amazon.com/SWITCHFLUX-Charging

                @hi I believe most keyboards should work with tablets with the proper usb cable. Not sure about the e-ink.

                  @hi sadly not many options even as i check every 6 months for this. probably best option is android ebook with external bluetooth keyboard. would be great to find one that can run postmarketos but i'm not sure there is one.
