However, of all the capabilities mentioned, this seems like one that could be developed from Linux up using whatever existing support library functions are available ... while getting at an Android that exists on an Android ereader that, for example, does not expose its built-in web browser and can support a range of existing Android apps of use makes eminent sense, what that is doing is leveraging the effort that the maker already put into porting Android to that device.

It would make more sense to port an already functioning Linux text editor that has been identified as a suitable one for porting (out of the hundreds of open source Linux graphic text editors out there) to the Linux on the M92 than to try to port all of Android to the M92 in order to obtain two or three apps.
