Ok so a friend of mine showed me one of these chinese imitation ipads, which of course turns out to be a piece of crap.... really slow and with an impossible touchscreen. But it's worth 60 bucks and comes with a usb dongle to connect stuff to it, so it got me thinking: since it already has android, maybe I can install a console only android on it and buy one of these portable keyboards and have a nice, cheap, 3g enabled ssh console to connect to my servers when I'm not on my pc. So the question(s) becomes:
Can I do this? what hardware should I buy (what "scipad" and keyboard) What version of android should I get and how do I install it? (a barebones one would be nice, anything with a gui would make the device too slow to use comfortably) Please bear with me, I'm a noob when it comes to gadgets, but I know a lot about pcs in general, linux and programming so I feel I might be able to pull it off if it's at all possible and I'm pointed in the right direction. Thanks in advance! -- unsubscribe: [email protected] website: http://groups.google.com/group/android-porting
