While the new name carries an expectation that a generic ereader device will not be able to fulfill, there is an open opportunity. Google Play now includes eBooks. And there is also a music store. So you could market a device being able to handle those two elements and maybe part of the app market too, if you are able to identify the apps that will or won't run on the device.
This something Sony might attempt to do. But an even better situation would be if Google decided to produce their own e-reader.

Actually - all mentioned issues aside that are rendering an android port to the M92 unattractive... this is one additional reason I'm not too unhappy about the M92 running a regular linux.
I'm not particularly fond of Google's privacy policy (though it's quite a funny document if you bother reading it *g*), which you'll have a hard time going around using Android.
Just my 2ct - cheers!
