And what's more, the basic functionality is already in place. That's right, it's already a working web browser. Cheers!
You don't know how happy this makes me. lol I've been holding off on buying a reader until the new BeBook/Hanlin/Astak devices are released, but it was bothering me that I might be sacrificing the opportunity to run OI. OI is on one of the main reasons I was drawn to the Hanlin line. It makes me feel much better that porting OI to the new versions may not be as difficult as what I was making it out to be in my head.
