Someone knows something like this with (possibly color) E-Ink?
Or maybe an E-Reader where you can go out of the reader application and install Android/Linux apps (e.g. you can "hack" them without much trouble)?

Ah, I understand. It's an attempt to replicate Steve "unwashed" Jobs' strategy, where buying overpriced stuff makes you BETTER, DIFFERENT and UNIQUE. Am I right?
$500 with a keyboard would be acceptable for a device like that. But the retail price is given as $700 plus $100 for the keyboard. That's pretty steep.
