That's correct, Operating system is Android 2.0, but each brand has special developments for their respective devices, and sometimes they use different drivers for the same parts and build the programs in slightly different ways, and that makes the difference

I'm pretty quickly coming round to the idea that I need an e-ink reader (probably a sony PRS-600 or similar) for book reading as the IQ is too heavy and clunky for real world use. However, I am prepared to use it as an experimental android tablet.
Good idea, you may also have a look at the new Pocketbooks, they look and feel very good.
Sony PRS T1 is a crossover between android and e-Ink, but not a very good one as it seems because people experience a lot of trouble with it.

Where do I get this 'port'?

It's in this section of MR, there's a thread called SH... something


Quote:
By the way, is that the 'Bay of Sorrows', 'Bay of Plenty', 'San Francisco Bay' .... or eBay
Not the first one, was a nice entry to Android, unfortunately not the second one, to far away for the third so most probably the last
