It may be not the best place to ask, but:
How useful is emacs on tablet devices. I have been thinking about
emacs and freerunner. But I have no clue how the keybindings work
with it.
Another possible device you might consider is the N850/900/950
series. I'm fairly certain there is a native emacs build for those
that requires no special jiggery-pokery.
I have an n900. Emacs and org work wonderfully for a small device. I'm
using 23.2 compiled by Sander Boer on this list.
The keyboard is easily remapped. The only downsides are the screen size
& speed. A task that takes 4 sec. to run on my laptop takes over 30 on
the phone (iterating large tables and the like).
Capture & clocking make it very useful in the handheld, so useful that I
just picked a 2nd device to have when my current one dies.
I can't speak to tablets or the freerunner but I would think the lack of
a real keyboard would be difficult to overcome.
