Mentioned many times: open air, T68, BT keyboard, supports I designed, Kingsoft 5.12 . But it is not comparable with what I do on desktop, 24'' and Libre. You work differently. You prepare your documents beforehand, and the work is more meditative; you operate on local chunks sequentially. You dance with the system. A speedy environment with real estate instead is your obedient extension. You can move around fast and you can think and operate globally. The situation of compromise only allows for a subset.
If your requirement is a monitor, wait for a device that works well to that aim - before that time, see what Android can do for you if you want to work on EPD.

I do not have the tentative specs of the "typewriter" with me though

You're right. I also forgot that you can just physically attach the tablet to your laptop screen and voilá it's portable. A chromebook would be neat indeed but I think not on their agenda
