I must spend at least a couple days a year for the last 15 fantasizing about having a wireless information radiator like this.

The idea first came to me in the era before BYOD was an okay thing. It was a huge struggle to put anything on the network, like a board saying how broken the builds are. And punching holes in walls or having dangling cables is always a problem, even at home, hence wireless.

eInk is pretty much the only candidate for a device that sleeps most of the time and wakes up momentarily to poll for data.
