Greetings,
[ my english isn't best so pelase forgive me any language mistakes.
I hope we'll understand well. ]
I've came to this forum seeking for answer for my question which was ' how to make e-ink a pc display ', and after reading hundreds of topics on a lot of sites net i've propably get my answer at last.
Just look:
http://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...&highlight=vnc
In this topic there's clearly written how to do it. I'm little suprised that i've succeded in my seeking, because after a lot of ' it's impossible/ get an ipad ' answers i nearly lost my hope.
Now, that tutorial consider device called ' irex iliad ', which i don't have - and which is not produced anymore, but i got pocketbook pro 903 - which is very similar to irex in any way, so i've thought that it'll be rather stupid to sell new pb903 and buy in exchange something which is, well, very similar but used, slower, old and without any warranty.
Just look, here's specs of pocketbook pro 903:

and here's 'irex illiad':
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ILiad
Like You see - external monitor trick must be possible on pocketbook if it is on irex.
That linux tricks, servers etc which allowing to make irex an pc display could be done because of, if i understood it correctly, a ' sdk ' [software development kit] - which was launched some time ago, which lets programmers experiment with the irex software.
And [!] here is a ' sdk ' for pocketbook pro [all models] series:
http://pocketbook-free.sourceforge.net/en/sdk.shtml
so - only some good will and few hours of skilled linux guy is necessary to enable ' external display ' feature on pocketbook pro, i assume that most of work is already done if trick is running on similar irex iliad.
i've found topics with salvations on how to make a server on such a device, how to set up screen refresh etc -
i'm just no geek, no programmer, and i just can't make an use of them.
i'm pasting them here, maybe there'll be useful in some way:

I need help of someone who understand all those ' coding ' and can just put it together, make an use of it, make me a tutorial like
