THANK YOU!

There is so much hardware out there people could be hacking on, improving, repressing all wasted due to difficulty loading new code.

A coworker was given a SONY e-ink device. We quite like it, but the included firmware is limited and dependent on a windows app that leaves a lot to be desired.

This is early hardware that was given the SONY treatment. That means great enclosure and ergonomics, but also conservative use of the display and goofy proprietary interfaces.

Would not take much to make the device a lot more useful.

One day, we will circle around and be talking about these already solid devices and how in-demand they remain despite their age because of your great decision.

Sidebar: I really want one, but am price constrained at the moment. (Too bad, so sad for me!)

Will the production models see an equally open configuration?

Hope so. Thanks again.
