n518 for Openinkpot
Hi,
I am just looking for EBook reader and would like to have one that is supported by openinkspot. So I found the Hanvon n516 as a suitable device. But then I found the newer n518. I very much like it's touchscreen support, but there seems to be no OI support yet. Is there anyone who started OI development on the device already? I would like to do or help doing it. But I need some starting tools like the possibility to flash the device or some hardware info. Do you think it is possible to create OI for n518 or should I better stick on the n516? bye Bluescreen |

One developer is working on OI support for n526, which should be similiar to the n518. There is only one major problem - the lack of documentation for the touchscreen controller. It might be possible to reverse-engineer the original wince driver, but the estimated time is not known.

Hi lunohod,
are you the one developer on the n518? Or do you know how to contact him? Bluescreen |
