I've since given up on trying to use an epaper screen as a monitor. The tech is too slow, requires too much fiddling and is too limited for a productive setup.

That's unfortunate. I've been inclined to agree with your posts on this topic and have found them quite helpful. For instance, I fully agree that using a mouse or even the stylus is too much work to be very efficient.

Did you get to experiment with terminal apps at all? I appreciate that you were having trouble getting a keyboard to work. I have similar misgivings about BT keyboards and have opted for a USB to bluetooth switch instead. Again, I haven't had much time to use it, but it seems to work OK with the M96, although I'm too busy right now to test it thoroughly. Using a mechanical USB keyboard with Obuntu on my M92, for instance, in a terminal seemed OK. But again, I didn't really get to test it with editing a text for instance, which would be more difficult given the greater navigation requirements. Again, I didn't have all that much time to test it, before getting waylaid by other things.
