I'm so sad that ePaper displays are still so expensive. They'd be perfect for splashing some home assistant driven goodness around my house. But the tiny ones are too tiny for my taste, and the big ones too expensive.

Where are we at on transflective lcd? I saw a decent demo a while back but I cannot recall the brand.
