As I understand, there should be no problem to put allreader2 (for wince syst) on it and run it.

What do you think?

The only problem that prevent us to use all those GPS units as an e-book reader is the battery life. Most, if not all, of them has a tiny battery that last about 1 hour in average. The battery is also not user changeable, it's not easy to upgrade the battery. But if you can have your reader plug in (almost) all the time, it should be OK then.
