Hello, It seems that the Sony ebook readers internaly run some kind of Linux (MontaVista Linux). I heared someone saying that there are images for eeprom out there to get access to the Linux system itself. Is there any work in progress to install FreeBSD on this (or any other ebook reader). They have a real nice greyscale display of 600x800 to read epub or PDF, even in daylight sun, and as they now also have Wifi on board, it would be nice to combine this with access to mail by some alpha MUA, for example mutt...
