I haven't found a way to put apps on the reader at all (like, no way to print something on the display or fetch keyboard input). There's a framebuffer device all right but it works only erraticaly (the browser likes to draw its background from what was written to the framebuffer but that's it).
The entire interface is a single process which uses obscure (proprietary) protocols to communicate with subprocesses which render the books and stuff. Even most binaries on this reader are in a proprietary format so it's rather hard to get a foot into the door. It also doesn't help that no one has found a debricking method yet - one mistake and the device is a brick (I already bricked one).
This is definitely one device that needs more love from hackers, but oh well. It's still good for reading either way.
