My Energy Sistem Pro HD (a Spanish version of the Boyue 62+, I believe) runs Android 4.2 but I have yet to come across an App I wanted to run but could not. That said, if the OP is getting his/her first ereader, I would not recommend an Android e-ink reader as a starting point - without some messing (and even rooting) they are just about all rather compromised units, with downloaded Apps working poorly (not e-ink optimised, so looking washed out), or not working in full screen.

Kindle and Kobo make great, "works out of the box" e-readers.

If the OP is happy to mess around a bit, then an Android e-ink reader can be made to work really well (I use my Pro HD in preference to my Tolino and my Kobo H2O).

In Europe, readily available Android e-ink readers can found from Energy Sistem, Icarus, and InkBook. (Readers from Boyue and Onyx generally have to be sourced from China/Hong Kong and import duties may be payable).

In North America, I get the impression the availability situation may be rather different.
