The device currently runs on windows CE 6 (ugh!) and only has a few apps developed for that execution environment.  If at all possible, I would like to compile and make a full firmware installation image that would boot up on there and give me a braille supported interface.

If the hardware has an Android port, then GNU/Linux would be a possibility. However, if the hardware is only running Windows CE, then its highly likely that it cannot run Ubuntu, since its not likely that the ARM chip supports ARM v7 instructions.
