Yay! Finally, working door bell with status message for couriers.

@revk I like this very much, even though the cynical part of me is wondering how long it will be before couriers start telling you that the "touchscreen" is "broken" when they press the camera "button" on the "touchscreen" and nothing happens

That looks like a pretty big e-ink display! Where did you find one that size?

@shyra @ret 7.5" from PiHut or Amazon. This was the one from PiHut with laminated glass front.

@revk @ret thanks! Wow, prices have come down on those!

@shyra @ret Indeed, £75 for proper laminated glass, but less for ones even with a waveshare hat and shit. Trying to find where to get the raw ones at a sane price now I have a circuit that may work.

@revk I need one of those with a countdown of how long it will take me to get to the door

@Sbectol I have seriously considered that, I may yet do it. It will be a pre-set time, but if we make a 60 second countdown they may wait a whole 60 seconds!

@revk What does the QR code do?

@Marcus Just has date/time and postcode, so a photo with it can be some proof of delivery.
