Either way, since my question probably isn't about the firmware at all, it would be somewhat wrong anyway.
I'd split it in software and hardware. Any EB-600 related threads should go into one forum, while any firmware related should go into the other.

If a new reader appears and has enough followers, they'll add a new section for it. But I second that there should be an "other" section for eReaders before that happens.
I don't think they should have seperate sections for hard & software. The question is: How do you know that an error, bug, problem etc. is related to hardware and not software/firmware? Answer: You don't! (And I assume 99% are software related problems anyway.)
And if you have questions about buttons, cases, wrist-strap or else this would be different too (just the mainboard stays mostly the same).
So YES to add a new "others" section to eReaders, but NO to a split for hard & software.
(just my 2 cents)
