Mobiscribe origin (2nd gen) also uses a Allwinnber B300 CPU, and it's also made by netronix.
Ryogo had port the 1st gen Mobiscribe to Nook and Tolino devices few years ago. I believe the 2nd gen can also be port to the lastest few devices.

that's interesting... i hadn't even heard of mobiscribe origin tbh :P
is it worth it, though? since the mobiscribe has a stylus and seems primarily focused on taking notes? (that based on 5 minutes of googling)
i also couldn't find the post/repository for the mobiscribe origin port :-/
what i think would really be awesome is to perhaps port the kobo software (from the sage or something that uses the b300) to see if the battery life improves... actually i'm not a big fan of stock kobo software either. but i just hate it that on all the forums they trash the tolinos for being android. or i don't know if anyone has played with inkboxos (or postmarketos or something) but getting away from android might be interesting. and maybe as a first effort, it would be good to fix koreader on tolino so it isn't such a battery hog. and grandiose plans for the future might involve changing the plato ebook reader (which, i gotta say, has a pretty sweet user interface) to have pdf reflow (it's just a shame it doesn't have it) and to be less fascist about "kobo only". not sure how that would work.. a rewrite for android? or maybe just accept that android is the future of ebook readers and come up with a really nice ebook reader for android :P
now ask me how many of those i'm actually going to do :P
