05.10.2014 - Microbook, firmware
Structure
Download sources and binary: book-src-130911.zip
Firmware consists of two parts - a bootloader, and a program itself.
The loader initializes the SD card, and checks for book_upd.avr.
If the file is found, it would be used as a firmware update.
The program itself works with the rest of the hardware.
FAT16 reading is done by a trimmed version of Petit FAT.
Only FAT16 cards, under 2 Gb of size, are supported for simplicity.
Usage
Four buttons, left to right: back, up, down, select.
Main menu selects read mode or browse mode, and allows for settings.
File select menu allows, naturally, file select.
Names of all files opened at any time are stored in FRAM, with their respective positions, so selecting a previously opened file would get you back to where you left it.
Reading tools menu is accessible by pressing select in the reading mode.
Here you'll find the scrolling modes, quick-access backlight controls, and status, such as battery and book position.

Hi, are you available to work on some similar projects ?

I actually thought about making something with this or 10.2" displays of theirs.
However i'm out of budget for the moment, and these things are expensive even without intercontinental delivery.
Not sure how much sense would it make - even 2.7" one alone cost as much as two Mk1 microbooks, and 7.4" one would be 4 times more expensive than that.
In other words, it would escalate from "easy DIY project" to "ridiculous".
Even Mk2 is already almost past the "makes sense" line, and is only there because 2.7" displays are common enough in various kits to be reasonable.

Absolutely gorgeous. But, the commentary about larger display still applies: is there a chance to see mk3 (or macrobook) e-ink reader which is about 20 cm wide - so it fits in a4 paper easily. And, ideally, with some touch capabilities so there's no need to bother with soldering buttons on the side?
