There are some E-ink devices in WinCE OS which can support the GDI. How and is there any plan to port the uBook onto this kind of E-paper disply.

It depends on the level of handling of Win CE by the unit. Not that uBook needs a lot from the OS, it currently supports only 8-bit, 16-16 and 24-bits display. If the unit is only B&W 1bit, then a new graphic handler would be needed. Also e-ink have a slow refresh rate, so all the dynamic stuff would be a problem. But Fixable.
