No idea on the processor. That's not part of the information.

Sooo close.
I'd trade the waterproofing for an SD card slot. Then I'd be drooling. |

I don't like the button placement on the back. It makes me question what the cover is going to look like.

Forgive a very minor correction, but this device is using a 20cm eInk screen (all eInk screen are exact numbers in cm). 20cm is actually 7.9", not 7.8". It's the same size as the screen of the iPad Mini.
