Vestaboard alternative

The split-flap board, without the hardware

A mechanical split-flap board costs thousands of dollars and lives on one wall forever. KarmaBoard gives you the same vintage clack on a screen you already own — for $9.99 a month, with live weather, sports, stock prices and transit built in.
