> market for amber LCD panels

Somewhere about 15 units world-wide? Not a best opportunity..

> having it done on the display side might give different results

If you take an OLED panel with a good pre/post-processor for the text mode you can get a pretty good results, but who needs a real text mode nowadays?

But yeah, I have at least two ancient Android tablets and at least one with Windows, I would love to repurpose at least one of them as an amber display to show the status of the services.
