I have a good understanding of computer technology but in recent years find myself moving towards near complete digital detox, I think there is far too much waved connection.
I run a Mudita Pure e-ink dumb phone which works as a modem and a rooted & degoogled Onyx Boox Note Air 2 Plus for everything else, at least that is the idea. The privatized Boox tablet firmware (controversial because of GPL) has proved a nuisance and thus I find myself using the linux laptop I intend to sell.
I like a rough, physical, healthy lifestyle, so to compliment it, I would like a rugged / metal Pinenote to work in tandem with a simple phone. Also, my opinion is that a colour e-ink display option would allow for a better multi-purpose device, I have had trouble reading backroad / topographic map-books in grayscale, and colour is helpful for the odd online purchase as well.
Simple e-ink devices seem to me a better path or at least compromise in the balance of things.
So, my take:
Also, I don't even want Bluetooth and physical disconnects would be nice
What do others think?

- Rugged & metal
- Optional colour display
- Not too big
