That's a great shade of green, it looks nice

There are settings for touch and long touch on InkPalm logo. Set them to Back and Go to Launcher and can navigate without any additional app.

I set my inkPalm to toggle the backlight when the button is held, but it turns out that if you manually set the backlight yourself to 0, then holding it has no effect. May as well do the same as you and set it to take me back home.

- Have no succes with any of TTS apps. Any suggestions are welcome!

I got TTS in Moon Reader to work. No idea if this will work for you in the Kindle application.
- As there's no headphone socket or speakers, pair some Bluetooth device to the inkPalm
- Install a TTS engine of some sort. I went for Google's, which can be found here.
- Because, as far as I can tell, TTS options aren't exposed in the limited settings on here, you need to get creative. Plug your inkPalm into the PC and run adb shell settings put secure tts_default_synth com.google.android.tts to set the Google TTS engine as the default
I didn't try this out myself, but you can adjust the default pitch and rate (default values given):
adb shell settings put secure tts_default_pitch 100
adb shell settings put secure tts_default_rate 100
You can bring up the window to install a voice with
adb shell am start -n com.google.android.tts/.local.voicepack.ui.VoiceDataInstallActivity. But after choosing a voice from the English (United Kingdom) section, Moon Reader continued to use a US voice.
What you can't do is bring up Google's TTS settings:
adb shell am start -n com.google.android.tts/.settings.EngineSettings fails. Shouldn't be a problem if someone manages to get root on this device.
A question of my own: does EinkBro work for you? It kept crashing here whenever I tried it.
And as I type this and connect to the Wi-Fi, a new system update is available:
