Re: Debian in the sunshine?

I have had pretty good luck using my Nokia N900 in the sunshine. I have been known to read using FBreader on it, as well as using other apps. Now my preference is white text on a black background, but that seems to work out pretty well...

It occurs to me that something like a Debian laptop with an e-ink screen
would be extremely useful, for, say, sitting on a sunny back porch in the
summer and programming -- a situation where the normal luminous screens
are a complete washout. No, I don't expect to be able to watch videos on
an e-ink screen. But the kind of (non)dynamism that occurs when editing
code in emacs should be easily achievable.

Anybody know of any hardware that could be used (or, if necessary,
abused) for this purpose? Preferably with bog-standard Debian?
