I've got this color e-ink reader:

http://www.onyxbooxusa.com/products/...ox-poke-color/

Checked it out (XCSoar) with an external GPS source (WiFi and BT connection available) and it works fine on the ground; still need to check it in the air. No speaker, but can attach one using either BT or USB-C OTG adapter (checked positive).

Interesting. Seems like a recent model. Did you have to hack control
away from the e-reading software, or does this model allow installing
other Android apps (such as XCsoar) in addition to the e-reading
software it comes with?
It's a regular Android 9.0 OS, it has the Google Play Store. No issue and no hacking needed to install the XSSoar and other Android apps so far.
There is also a 7,8 inch version due out next month

Looks great! Moshe, why don't you update TopHat to run on this one!
