Any place you can buy a presoldered version yet?

Would be quite interested in this, particularly with a pico w. Doesn't need to be completely assembled.

Same here - though I am outside of the us.

I think the closest thing may be a kobo nia with a custom OS like Inkbox, but it's not easy to repair, though the storage can be replaced.

Seems to be similar, albeit with some differences. A color panel might also be worth considering for a future iteration. https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/inky-frame-5-7?variant=40057850331219

Would love to be notified when a pre-soldered version is available

Just some stuff I found which is almost there

I'm a person who would rather pay a maker for a completed device than pay for centralized assembly, and probably will not make a device myself, but will, if possible, use it to hand type old books that are too irregular for OCR to function well.
