inky-what display can be found on their site: https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/inky-what?variant=13590497624147

3d files can be found on thingiverse: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3325556

I'm thinking about tackling this.  Of course, I have so many projects in flight right now, not sure when that will be...  :huh: :-[

The fact that it's e-ink instead of LCD.  Different tech.  They have LCD screens on that site also.
