Android-pi: interesting idea but at this point the phone OS ecosystem
has exploded in terms of main memory and storage. The RasPi is
deficient but let's remember this prolly isn't a v0.8 release.

My question would be: What would I gain from Android-pi vs a
stripped-down distro (like VortexBox?) If all it's going to do is play,
the only two parameters are convenience and cost.
