I put "usable" at reading plaintext, rendering an HTML form and submitting it. If any reader failed to render 68k.news I would be amazed (and somewhat disappointed, I have a very cheap PRS-T1 on it's way as an experiment for using an eink device as a news reader).
The T1 um....No. Do you know that the T1 is slow and low resolution and it can freeze, lock up, or be really slow when reading eBooks with high-res graphics such as the cover and title page? Do you really want that?
