I'm curious how long the battery lasts. Since it's Android based I presume it doesn't have a deep-sleep option. Ideally I'd want it to wake up once every 10-30 minutes, fetch a frame to display from a LAN server and go back to sleep.

I know it's doable with a custom e-ink display and something like an ESP32 but reusing an e-reader that already has a nice frame and everything is so much nicer.
