Which is probably why ereader manufacturers aren't storming to install Android on their devices, because what would be the point of that? Android market? If this is such a great idea, why doesn't Nook come with it? Why do you have to root it first?
One word: control.
Can you guarantee your device will run every possible app out there? Apparently you can't with the given hardware. Which is why widespread Android in ereaders is a Pipedream, at least during the current generation. Maybe next...

Android on E-ink maybe a pipedream, but so are the crippled Linuxes as well with their dismal performance.
The discussion here was: would it not be better to use Android(with modifications) instead of of begging and hoping to have some basic software inplemented in PB and Onyx.
And for the hundreth time: who wants to run ALL apps on a e-ink device?
We need only SOME apps - actualy between 5 and 10 ...
