"best developers" was a bit tongue in cheek, it was late and I didn't have time to come up with good wording (I'm not a good word person). but what I tried to convey; we know that even _if_ we can release a toolchain, we can't deliver a full, polished SDK. so "best developers" was more about developers that don't need any hand-holding.
but again; we can't even promise that we have the time and resources to package up a usable toolchain for third-parties.

Is it safe to assume that it will be possible to update the firmware on the device so that some updates will be possible after shipping?
of course, one of the nice things with modern hardware is that we can deliver more features after shipping the device.
edit; also, it is a device connected to the internet. not supporting updating the firmware would be extremely irresponsible from a security perspective.
From FAQ > own special operating system Codex / We might however release an unsupported SDK for best developers
That's disappointing. I assume "best developers" means corporates. I'd have hoped for a fully open SDK as you're not able to use anything from Android etc. There's probably no end of utilities solo coders would piece together. I'd probably be looking at whether I could make a few apps myself.
I'm a little disappointed at no lighting, it's made a big difference to my eReader. No doubt LEDs would add much to cost.
