Reader with a keyboard case, or bluetooth

[jizmo]

Are there any readily available solutions to have a eInk eBook reader with a nice case and with a (usb) keyboard attached for text typing, similar to the ones they have for iPads and color Android tablets?

I have to work throughout the summer so it would be awesome to have something like this to be able to reply to emails and write a few documents while sitting outside.

Bluetooth might do that trick also here, after a quick search I noticed that Onyx Boox devices are the only ones really advertising for having a bt, but are there other eInk readers capable of pairing with a bluetooth keyboard?

Some Onyx & Boyue eInk devices run full Android and are basically eInk tablets so I'd think that as long as it has bluetooth a bt keyboard would work fine. Can't say 100% for sure though since I've never read of anyone trying it.

Alright so it seems like my best bet is to get either of the Onyx models with bluetooth and use a bt keyboard.

A Bluetooth keyboard works absolutely fine with the Onyx T68. I did try it, just as an experiment. The T68 is the only generic Android eInk tablet which has Bluetooth, to the best of my knowledge.

Onyx T68 really seems to fit the bill.

I started to shop around for one but it seems they are almost out of stock everywhere (amazon de/uk/it), even Onyx' own website lists only 5 items available.

Could it be there's a new model on the way?

I use my Bluetooth keyboard to send emails with my Nexus 5 phone. I use my ereader to read.
