I bought a 2nd gen Iliad, mainly on the strength of it being able to get newspapers delievred over wifi (as advertised) never materialized, stuck with it after they opened it up for developmenmt (BEST MOVE EVER!) There were some good ported linux apps, but the community never got big enough to get momentum.
Their best bet would be to leverage the openness aspect and go for the android OS, as that market which will soon be flooded with expertise.
