Where did you get your Kobo mini?

I bought mine at a local chain store which was attempting to move their inventory.

They seem to go on sale quite regularly in the US and UK; I imagine they'd be available somewhere online at a comparable price if you search around.

Damn those things cost more then 80 bucks over here. Dangit.

If you aren't able to find one, there's a number of different hackable Kobo readers that all run extremely similar software internally. Many of the Kindle models are usable in a similar manner and have quite active communities, though I've no firsthand experience with them.

That sounds great. Would love to have that thing and your source code.

There's actually not a lot of source code to show just yet. The default loader is entirely based on bash scripts, to which I've just been extending and adding my own features to. It does run Python quite well, I've just not quite been able to master writing to the screen in a sensible fashion with it yet.
