Sounds like a second-gen product, or a premium option.

How many people are going to want to do this who wouldn't otherwise just buy an e-ink Android tablet that's got a display input that are already on the market?
Since e-ink tablets already understand PDF, the easiest way of doing this is to write a printer driver that picks a tablet as the target, and a daemon on the tablet that accepts the incoming PDF and makes it the new document being displayed.
Nook Simple touch is an android tablet with an eink screen (runs a custom rom but very easy to go stock android, though in time I found there was no benefit and went back to their custom rom).

That would be perfect for my own use case actually.
I haven't heard of Android tablets with display in, got any links?

They don't support external video inputs though.
Very true, I totally missed that bit of the original comment.
Onyx Boox product range, there's likely others.
