after a week of hunting for hardware for my portable ssh terminal, i'm giving up.

considered: eink tablets (supernote manta, boox go, boox note), eink ereaders (pocketbook, kobo, even kindle) and a few diy options (waveshare + rpi, eink panels with esp32).

  • eink tablets are too expensive and slow for code editing;
  • android ones are too bloated;
  • jailbreaking ereaders is too fragile;
  • diy options are even more expensive and clumsier.
i guess we have to wait for someone to build this product for us.

  • 7-10" 15hz eink;
  • customizable os (i want stripped down with ssh client only);
  • replaceable battery;
  • wifi;
  • usb-c (for external keyboard, display, and charging).

    @hi am deeply intrigued by your term idea, disagree with surrender, and find myself wondering why you oppose teh tiny dots or spaces in your posts. Bruh, did your tool declare war on readability? use ANY punctuationโ€ฆ

        @hi first gen: emulate how thisโ€™d work. Qemu or vitualbox or docker or etc. trim down, and choose between stripped Linux/bsd OS and a genuine bespoke ssh-only OS โ€” my voteโ€™s on the latter being a bad choice due to challenges of owning ssh, drivers, patch.

        Second gen: any odd bit of salvage / surplus HW fitting your plan. Hone in on cpu, I/O.

        Third gen: a thing. Esp32 gets you WiFi Bluetooth and variety of screens, pi zero gets you hdmi. This oughta be in your mind at gens 1 & 2, including โ€˜to Bluetooth or not to Bluetoothโ€™ since a freakishly-portable term is going to double usability if it readily hops between minimal config and kbd (mouse?) bigger-screen via hdmi & bt.

          @InkomTech @hi my vote is a stripped *nix, esp32. Later if HDMI matters, get it via an addon/shield.

              @hi hm, the Pomera doesn't have eink it seems, otherwise it looks really nice and can run OpenBSD jcs.org/2026/04/09/openbsd-dm2 - but it doesn't seem to be easily obtainable. There are more devices of this kind at writerdeck.org/

                    @georgsassen @hi not sure the DM30 would fit the bill. it's only got a 120MHz ARM9 which isn't very fast, and doesn't have any networking builtin
