We will see if this is also the end the whole project perhaps in the summer?

Sony is waiting for general availability of new resolution E Ink displays and new i.MX7 chip. There is no point releasing new DPT with old hardware.
A company in China released a new 9.7'' e-reader called Jing Page X which has a very similar specification to the reMarkable and you can already buy it. So this proves that such a e-reader can be created.

How do you know about Sony? Because if we are talking about the same company, if Sony would like to use IMX7 , they would incorporate into their devices themselves, not wait for anyone. IMX7 is easily available from 2016, so I don't understand what you are refering to. I didn't hear any gossips about new e-ink screen coming neither..
