That's cool! A couple of questions.... What's the plan for the boot loader, is it planned to use OF still and port it to the ARM platform or is it planned to use one of the more mainline ARM bootloaders such as uboot or the like. Also what's the plan with the virtual keyboard support in sugar. It might be worth looking at the MeeGo/Moblin based VKB stuff as a basis. Its skinnable and supported various inputs via scim and integrates with that. Let me know if you need more info as I've been packaging some of this up in Fedora as part of my work with the aforementioned UIs in Fedora.
