If PocketBook provides a sane framebuffer configuration Koreader can also run on rather old device/firmware while building with latest SDK.
The older SDK targets two architectures: arm-linux and arm-none-linux-gnueabi. arm-linux is for the old 3XX devices, and is binary incompatible with the newer EABI ones. You cannot run code compiled for one system on the other (with the exception of the 360+, which had compatibility libraries for the old arm-linux binaries).

Anyway, it sounds like you don't want to be bothered compiling for pre-version 5 devices, so I won't say any more about it.
