some ereaders do use android, my old onyx did, but honestly i much prefer the dedicated solution kobo has. they could use android, but if they've got the resources to make their own os targeting their actual use case instead of cramming a mobile phone os in there, why wouldn't they? even their os has too much cruft for my taste, but it is a lot less than an android ereader.
