Check the posts on the last pages, someone managed to do it, I think. Integrating something like that into PRS+ is planned at some point in the future, but it's not supported at the moment.

@kartu have seen this drop-in replacement firmware for the 505 and 300?
Yes. It's:
1) a port of existing app by a small company which is trying to sell eink software (I guess to vendors)
2) it has serious bugs like "changing page won't work", "frozen", "battery gone in a couple of hours"
3) They aren't going to release sources, heck, they don't ever publish GNU stuff they've used (and they've used it a lot), which they MUST do.

I've "officially" asked them for part of the sources, but got no answer so far and I don't think I'll get it in the future.

Funny thing is, they've removed the page about porting to 500/300. It contained text about "bad companies" that use open source stuff and present it as their in house product...
