That's something I'd love to try to do if I can find the time.

Sure thing, I've attached the source code below. The key is line 48 in partial_update_inverted.c:
Code:
region.flags = EPDC_FLAG_ENABLE_INVERSION;
I got that from the freescale eink documentation. It's usually used to "flash" the screen to remove ghosting. What my "inverted mode" package does is call that eink inverted update code every two tenths of a second, giving you an almost constant white on black display.
