title_body: Could my eBook reader be infected by some sort of virus? There're many eBook Readers out there, each one with its own operating system, some of them based on Android.
  
  Is it possible for these devices to get infected with some sort of virus or trojan? Or there have been already any experience with this problem?
upvoted_answer: As long as those readers don't provide the possibility to install third party software you should be quite safe.
  As the main weakness of Android is the Enduser - installing bad applications containing malware and in the worst case viruses.
