Legality? Just release a binary patch... probably only need to change a few bytes. And since it's not theft of service, I really doubt Amazon would take a hard-line approach to its own, paying, enthusiasts.
The Nook does something different when it updates the page; It looks weird... I feel like we've brute-forced just about every possible eInk update command, unless Nook is doing a special intermediate update image perhaps there is something interesting in the firmware. I believe both units use the same panel, and the Kindle loads firmware into it at boot.
