Maybe one of the large e-reader. For example there is an Onyx Boox not released yet that is supposed to be 13.3" 1600x1200 and running Android. Maybe it can be repurposed. I doubt refresh rate is going to cut it though.

You could probably make it quite usable by running xterm in Tektronix emulation mode. Old school vector displays and new e-ink screens behave somewhat similarly, in that you can add content to the screen without actually refreshing.
