Ask any Kindle or Kobo eInk reader user. Both use a customized Linux as the core OS. Several Kobo devices were hacked to use Android but that was basically a dancing bear ("The marvel is not that the bear dances well, but that the bear dances at all."). If nothing else, eInk is not the display of choice for video/flash animation/etc.
