    There’s this company, which makes ebook readers that don’t seem to be tied to any particular vendor:

    https://shop.boox.com/collections/all

    They have so many models, though, that I have no idea where to start with them.

      They use GPL and won’t release the source. Fuck Boox

      It looks like it’s Android based. Can you run eBooks readers on it?

        Yes, I haven’t come across any apps so far that didn’t work. Performance is an issue with some apps, but nothing major.

      I am very happy with my boox note 2. Use it to read books, manga, and take notes in OneNote for classes.

      I have the Leaf 2 and like it a lot. Can be a little slow sometimes, but nothing worse than any other ereader I’ve used.
