Why buy a handheld gaming console when you can build one? #handheldgaming #retrogaming https://t.co/Kwd3ShUADN

Xteink is back with a new pocketable E Ink e-reader, the X3. Not only is it smaller than the X4, but it's also more polished. Welcome to the new and exciting world of tiny e-readers, enjoy our full review @EInk #xteink #ereaders #ereading https://t.co/TGxcTJs2X3

@Hacksterio wait, is this just a @TheMeshtastic node?

@news_politics_x @WIRED Assuming this uses pulse wave analysis calibrated to a cuffed measurement, it could mean that all that Samsung and Apple are missing for FDA approval is a sufficiently validated cuff. I can't imagine this device's algorithm is so much more advanced than Samsung's or Apple's.

@WIRED How does it know where it is in relation to the heart? The position of the monitor is super important. I'm assuming it's using pulse wave analysis. How does the PPG sensor perform with different skin tones? How does it know when the body's at rest?

The MagicX One 35 gaming handheld nails portability and price, but what really sets it apart is that it can be played horizontally and vertically, perfect for Tate mode #retrogaming #handheldgaming https://t.co/XGohwa5HdK

@ArtemR i for one welcome the return of SD cards to phones

@Guilty_Gamer_X @EInk @BigmeEInkTablet Slap some third-party apps on this bad boy and it's a near-unbeatable Android tablet, especially considering it's one of the most affordable Android e-readers you can buy.

@Guilty_Gamer_X @SBComicsFair I had a lot of fun reading these. I hadn't seen @riotbones' work before and I absolutely love it >< I can't wait to see what they drop next. I probably can't afford it, but I wonder how much a custom illustration costs ...

The Xteink X4 e-reader is small, but it can be a mighty E Ink companion if you understand how to use it to its maximum abilities @EInk #ereader #xteink #x4 https://t.co/l4uYlfNf4i

@Ham_Rav @Guilty_Gamer_X @AleAbbey_Game It's still a lot of fun, there's a lot of game here! Can't wait to see what you do next.

Ale Abbey might just be the best way to brew beer on your PC. The gameplay, graphics, and music are artfully combined to create a very compelling package @AleAbbey_Game @Ham_Rav #management_simulation https://t.co/hitsKQlLbV

@Guilty_Gamer_X @EInk This little device feels ridiculously good to hold, but it does have some kinks it needs to work out. Thank goodness for regular firmware updates!

[Guilty Gamer @Guilty_Gamer_X]

We just reviewed a quirky yet tiny e-reader known as the Xteink X4, and even though the small form-factor is infectious, the software leaves a lot to be desired @EInk #ereader #xteink #x4 https://t.co/DuMe2s6YjR

[Daniel Allen @dkallen78]

@OnyxBoox @Guilty_Gamer_X @EInk Thanks for the tip! It's too useful to disable so I set it to collapse instead.

[Daniel Allen @dkallen78]

@Guilty_Gamer_X @BNBuzz I don't need a new e-reader, but I really love having some fun color options besides black and white. Hopefully this means there's a new Nook on the way, too ...

[Guilty Gamer @Guilty_Gamer_X]

Check out Barnes & Noble's new Nook color Ocean Teal. It's pretty striking @BNBuzz #newcolor #ereader https://t.co/jXfiXboJZf
