The one you've gone for, is the one that Kabouik ref'd in January 2014.

Still, it's better than nothing, thanks for taking the initiative...
That was a long time ago so I'm not sure anymore, but I seem to recall that, at the time, I did find larger eInk screens, but encountered the same issue as with the 4.3" one: they wouldn't fit in a Jolla OH. That was why I gave the link to the 3.5". There were no intermediate sizes at the time, perhaps there are now. Perhaps there are thinner alternatives too, I don't know (but the 3.5" screen is already quite thin).

In any case, there were already larger screens back in 2014, so I don't think the 3.5" is much more outdated now. It was just the largest compatible size.

Great to know that you ordered one Kimmo! See the bright side: you have spared $5 US, as the price decreased since January 2014.
