Raspberry Pi based ebook reader

It appears one or two have been built. The Open Book project is floating around in the air.

Does it offer anything?

The downside is Moonreader+ pro probably won't run on it. Calibre will run on a Raspberry Pi and it does have an ereader.

Thoughts?

Thanks John

Considering how small the Pi Zero is I can see how it's possible. For whatever reason the linux based handheld game players and linux based watches have no appeal to me. But an ebook gizmo could be interesting.
