Don't worry, this is for the rest of you too

Fun Hardware Stuff

Nice. I love the entire ide of e-ink. Makes you wonder how many other rooted devices could support something like this.


On a similar hardware note:

Oh, and at the reported post on this, this is not useless. This is what this site is about, using a kindle as a monitor for an embedded linux device is a hack. Very interesting stuff, just because your not into hardware hacking or don't understand it, does not make this useless.


+1 lucid.
