I don't often do this, but I just read a white paper by Benjamin Zores

It's a bit of a subtle advertisement for the Linux Foundation's
training courses,
but whether you're interested in that or not, the paper makes some
good
points, and I think does a good job of capturing the current pros and
cons
of using Android vs. traditional embedded Linux in your product
designs.
The paper is available at:

Related to this was a panel held at Android Builders Summit a few
weeks ago.
This was reported on by Jake Edge in LWN.net at:

(Sorry if that last bit looks self-serving. I was on the panel, but
if you're
interested in this topic, I think the discussion is useful.)
My talk was on this subject too:

(What I actually talked about wasn't "what is toybox" but "_why_ is
toybox". Not the implementation details but the motivation, why there's
a _need_ for a new command line.)
And that's totally self-serving. :)
