[QUOTE=knc1;3280315]You are posting in the grayscale Kindle forum./QUOTE]
*) The display is e-ink, not e-paper.
- don't really care
*) It does not do color, only 16 shades of gray.
- I did not mention color, I believe nothing prevents me from using 2 of the gray shades, black and white.
*) It has a front light, not a backlight.
- figure of speech, does not really matter.
*) The display **is** the case frame.
- watched a video of gen4 disassembly and it all looks dashboard-friendly.

*) 5 fps - easy, read up on the Kindle video display here.
Thats great to know, thanks.
*) do some more research here -
-) look at the devices tear downs, perhaps even buy one and take it apart so you have a better idea of what you are suggesting.
-) look at the threads on using the Kindle as an information display
Will do, thanks.
