The PB626 has some pretty generic hardware (Allwinner A13, very close to olinuxino board), this is why I succeeded getting some stuff running.
I thing getting everything working is possible and more or less easy, with a notable exception: the display. If I am not mistaken, it uses a chip (tps65185), and that gives orders to the panel. Those orders depends on the panel (google for "eink waveforms"to get more info), and reversing pb software and/or writing new software seems very very complicated.

Like I said, I have no idea why I started this, but now I would like to get everything working and have complete control on the hardware. From there, may be resurrecting open ink pot will be possible?
