Kindle as an insert in Traveler's notebook

Yes! I purchased a Boox Palma 2 and it slips beautifully into the proprietary TN Regular size, especially when it has a sewn-in pocket on the cover. This helps me be able to unplug and remain portable (bc we all know that books-on-books-on-books is a slippery [and heavy] slope when trying to go anal

Pre-2012 Kindles are being bricked

If you want an Android device, go Boox Palma. If you want ultra portable, go Xteink. If you want affordable but larger phone sized, go Moaan. If you want an actual phone that's e-ink, go BigMe.

MP3 player for kids to listen to Libby

Okay this has a screen but it’s e-ink, so may be a better fit for what you’re looking for? The Boox Palma is a small e-reader about the size of a phone, that can have downloaded apps. Basically like the e-ink of an iPod touch. It’s compatible with Libby so your kids could listen through it or even r

Me, watching all the beautiful e-readers here and wanting to buy more, when I already have one

I started with a nook, second hand, that crapped out after a year or so. Then came the kindle. I hated being locked into the Amazon ecosystem so I got a boox Palma 2. I loved it, but was scared to lose or damage it so it stays home. So I get an xteink x4 for taking on the town and it’s great! Finall

Cab anyone reccomend a hand sized eink reader, with buttons?

Xteink x4 — IF you have DRM-free book files and don’t need a front light. No touchscreen or other apps. Has buttons. Very tiny but yet very readable as long as you can handle like around maybe 20 point font and below. Boox Palma 2– can run apps like kobo and kindle, as well as take DRM-free files. T

E-ink Data privacy concerns

Definitely don't get a kindle, or use any amazon owned companies then! I have a Boox Palma and a Go 7 for reading/taking notes and love them. It's Android OS based so you can pretty must get any app you want on it. I also have a Supernote for writing, I've had this for 5 years I think and it's what

Upgrade your travel kit with a tiny, Tailscale-friendly router

From the article: Any devices connected to the travel router can reach devices on a chosen tailnet, regardless of whether they have Tailscale installed. and You can connect an e-book library like Calibre with devices that cannot typically run Tailscale, like an e-ink reader (Kindle, Kobo, Boox Palma

I am so fed up.

You should try a eink phone it's really so much more comfortable than normal screens. It's the most basic screen you can ever get. Can use it without it's front light and it doesn't have a polarizer. The big me hibreak pro, hibreak s and the minimal phone are the full Google play smartphones that us

Devs adding built-in payment system.. why???

As a reader I agree, RR has an awesome reader that works great on my Boox Palma, Patreon is NOT a reading app, it just pretends to be one and I cancelled multiple subscriptions because I couldn't stand reading on their platform. RR creates the superior product and seemingly treats authors fairly, I'
