Pepijn,
Have you taken a look at the Boox (Onyx) devices?
As you see in this thread, the large M92 can be opened with a screwdriver, it runs on Linux, has an open ecosystem.
I don't know about the openness of the hardware, but I would suggest you to contact Booxtor, member of this forum, who is a distributor of Boox-devices in Germany, and who is very active in developing the software.
I know it is possible to install your own fonts and screensavers, and I know about Onyx-users who have developped a email-client for their device.
