Is it conceivable to buy an old touchscreen device Built for Android and run something like Damn Small Linux or whatever simply to run Calibre? I'd remove any of the nasty geolocation stuff, and being able to access the internet, make calls, etc is not an issue for me. I'm thinking that I could be my Calibre Library on a micro SD card, and have the program set to look at that directory for any books.

Has anyone had success in trying to make a tablet device of sorts from a phone like I described? I want to do something like that, and I just want to be able to read and consume audio/video.

Also, is it likely that a device like that would have free drivers for wifi or graphics? Someone please point me in the right direction if you would know.
