The idea, I think, is that he wants to display normal computer programs on an eInk screen. Examples: Maybe for some reason you want to view an Excel spreadsheet (or some other unsupported format) on an eInk screen. Or maybe you just want to read text documents but with more features available.

Since there aren't any plain e-ink screens available with a VGA connection (at reasonable cost) to consumers, using a cheap Kindle for this purpose is next best. He wants to use his Kindle as another monitor for his computer, basically. I will have to look into rdesktop for this purpose. It would be the easiest to implement and have the option of being wireless.
