Your best solution right now is the 13 inch Onyx Boox Tab X. Put it in front of your MacBook screen and connect through VNC, or leave the Mac at home. They can't connect through wire. Or wait and see if they release a color version of the same size soon.

I have a color Boox tablet, and I am very very disappointed about the colors. Very hard to distinguish many colors and shades. Black and white though is really good.

I have also seen the color eink tablets, and the colors are so dull that you at first glance can take it for grayscale. Even so, I think colors would be very good to have for work and functional purposes, only to distinguish between colors. Certainly not for enjoying them.
