Where are the replacement? How much do they cost? My DXG needs a screen.
I plan to make an array (wall) of eink displays, using my K3 (and other) demo kindles.
You can use a VNC client (or similar screen-sharing app). There are some available for various kindle models. Or you can proxy the raw framebuffer with netcat.
EDIT: It may be possible to drive an eink screen directly with output pins (from an arduino or rasbpi, or whatever). But you would need a logic analyzer and some signal and protocol analysis skill to figure out the eink pinout and commands to send to it.
