MobileRead Forums - View Single Post - The most open-sourced ebook-reader (SDK+extras)?

Hi,

I am looking for ebook-reader which has the best open-source attitude -- this would mean the OS is open-source (available for download), SDK (free as beer), bundled applications and so on. This availability is a sign for me that the device will live long because usually there is some community around to port this or that application.

Initially I am thinking about iRex DR100S because of the screen size, I need to see entire page at once without scrolling it.

I hope there is no some great Linux-based with KDE device on another side of the globe - only.

Thanks for your help! Cheers
