I'd also love something like that. It seems there is a lack of demand though, as larger e-ink displays get expensive [0] and the only kits designed for the Raspberry Pi are small (<3"), so you'd need to figure out the protocol yourself.
That combined with a small keyboard and a phone for a hotspot would be awesome, I'd love to be able to sit in a park and code in the summer...
Hey, that's my thread! In case anyone's wondering, I ended up with a $25 Nook Simple Touch. If you just want the screen and no touch capability, then look through the rest of the thread. Unfortunately, I have not had the time to play with it much yet, but I can tell you the rooting process works very smoothly for the NST.
