I am planning to add a few android devices to the fq_codel'd campground

cyanogenmod, my only kvetch with that device is that there is no 5ghz
support on it, and it looks like there are blobs to be had in various
bits of that platform.

For the Ethiopian reading project we used Motorola Xooms.

I'd give you one but all I have left is 2 broken ones. They support
5Ghz and we ran a TeamEOS build on them.

Actually our build was and earlier build before the name changed to
team-eos. I also ran CyanogenMod 10.0 on the last working one I had.
It works well.
I've built apps but not yet built a full OS build. Building a full tree
requires a pretty beefy machine these days and CyanogenMod >= 10
requires you use a 64-bit os now.
My core criteria is being able to have deep insight into the gsm/lte
and/or wifi drivers.
The Xoom has a BCM4329 802.11n WiFi which may not be the best choice for
you.
OLPC is currently investigating running android on the XO-4. I'll let
you know if we actually do a port.
