There are many e-reader devices with ePaper display - I bought myself a cybook Gen 3 18 month ago - and most (all of them) have linux on-board. Moreover, there are many sites selling on-line books, some in standard fomats, some others in vendor-locked formats.
Then there is OpenInkpot, which I did not know existed until now. More than enough material for an article peraphs?

Your editor would like nothing more than to be showered in such devices so that a survey article could be written. So far, the vendors of these devices have not been forthcoming, though, and your editor's mother - the source of the Kindle - probably cannot be counted upon for any further acquisitions. So it's going to be really hard to look at readers in general; writing such an article from web sites and marketing literature just doesn't give the same sort of results.
I do intend to play with OpenInkPot in the near future, stay tuned.
