And there seems to be a trend towards Android.
You are right. M92 can be modified to run Android. So, what is the problem?

At present, there are 2 or 3 e-ink e-readers with Android and let say 100 different ones with other OS. I woudn't call it trend, but OK. I agree, it might be better to have Android on M92, but some kind of Linux is just OK.

Again. If having Android on your e-reader is your need, then port Android to hardware of your choice. Or buy what's on market or wait.

You do not trust M92 hardware because it was designed in China (And are you sure, the design was not outsourced to somewhere else?). It is your right and than I do not understand, why you are wasting your time in M92 threads. ;-)

After 3 weeks of daily use for several hours a day, I see no hardware problems, so far. No a single freezing. The make seems very solid and I also like the look of device and small size (comparing to other 9.7" e-ink readers).

So, I see firwarewise quite a big space for improvements, but for my needs it is just fine as it is now out of the box.
