Onyx BOOX T10C is a slightly cheaper 10.3 inch E Ink color tablet

An appealing device, but for that price I would rather get a regular Android tablet from Samsung.

    I find this appealing too, but it’s because for my use case the e-ink screen is non-negotiable. This would be a replacement for paper notebooks and scratchpads. To be honest if you don’t need the power efficiency and natural-light readability of e-ink, on a tablet-sized screen, I don’t understand why you’d be tempted by this at all. What am I missing?

        Ah, I’ve made a few things in my time and I tend to look at price of a thing through the lens of whether it does what I need it to and if I could build it cheaper myself. Do you mind if I ask what you would call a fair price for a device like this, and which features you absolutely could not do without if you were to buy one?

          Well for e-ink, it would be longer battery life and decent contrast.

          I probably wouldn’t go over USD $200 for ~7 inch device.
