My current e-reader is an Openbook Abridged designed by Joey Castillo of Oddly Specific Objects. It is larger than this tiny device, but smaller than something like a smartphone, and I think it is the PERFECT size. It's a similar kind of device which actually has even less features than this O24. I love it so much, and have been reading so much more than I used to since I soldered the kit together ~6 months ago.

Is this actually out? I saw him with demo units at Supercon last year. I would love to get one
The Openbook Touch is the new one still in development. You can sign up for alerts on the Crowdsupply page: https://www.crowdsupply.com/oddly-specific-objects/open-book...

The original Openbook and the Abridged version haven't been active projects in a while.

I got mine from some random guy on the discord who happened to have a bunch of kits he found in his closet or something.
