Specifications wise, it looks like a disaster: 6 inches screen, low resolution (800x600 ? It is not for sale on E-Ink's site), with a custom software that does not offer rich text (in 2018?!‽‽‽) and has no fine grained control - at the cost of 500$, of which the screen will be around one fourth, when the same functionality is brought by any customizable "e-reader" plus keyboard and basic text editing software (not full word processing).

I have done much more on a T68, with much less. And, by the way, 6'' is a "only because it's the only solution I have" measure for working with text, if it's not telegrams.
