I've had the reMarkable 2 for years and it's amazing. FYI, the reMarkable is itself quite hackable. There is a supported way to run an SSH server on it and push your own binaries and other files to use on the device. One example resource for hacks/mods is https://github.com/danielebruneo/remarkable2-hacks .

I recommend the Remarkable 2. In addition to serving as an e-reader, it is an excellent notebook replacement. As a cool note about the Remarkable 2..."under that Eink screen sits a dual core 1.2GHz ARM CPU, with 1GB of RAM, running Linux... and... you can SSH into it by default!!!" [1].

If color doesn't matter to you ReMarkable [0] is the exact thing you need (it seems like you do, but I wll include it for anyone else looking for something hacker friendly). It basically allows you to just ssh into it and do whatever you want. It has an active hacker community [1][2]. Sorry I didn't answer your question exactly but reMarkable (I am not affiliated btw) seems quite cool. I am sad it is a bit too expensive for me to justify the purchase.
