32-bit isn't an issue. You reference Y2038, but this is only an issue when you care about binary compatibility, which you do not. Wikipedia says:
"Linux originally used a 64-bit time_t for 64-bit architectures only; the pure 32-bit ABI was not changed due to backward compatibility.[15] Starting with version 5.6, 64-bit time_t is supported on 32-bit architectures, too. This was done primarily for the sake of embedded Linux systems."
There is absolutely no need for a 64-bit processor in a device with less than 4GB RAM.
Oh really? Lets have a look at the market shall we?
What is this then? [0]
Or this? [1]
Maybe this? [2]
Finally, an actual colour e-ink e-reader product. [3]
64 Bit e-reader bonus review: [4]
I have high hopes for reMarkable to do better than what is on the market right now which is why I would rather wait for a color e-ink version with a 64 bit CPU, which the technologies DO exist today. But unfortunately, what they are offering for a competitive e-reader tablet tells me that they are not even trying, even when they are selling a product with outdated technology. That isn't really a good deal is it?
Until then: No Thanks and No deal.

Like I said, wait for e-ink colour and 64 bit or don't bother.
