Customer:
I’m very interested in the Inkplate 6 project. I have several Kindles, Nooks, and other e-paper readers of various generations. What Kindle models and screens are supported by Inkplate 6? I’d also like to know if there are opportunities to help as a beta tester.

Soldered Support:
The e-paper screen on Inkplate 6 is recycled from Kindle 3. Inkplate 6 comes with the electronics and screen included and works out of the box. It will only work with that specific display - unfortunately, e-papers are really complicated to drive and display content on them, so reusing Kindle screens with Inkplate isn’t possible.
