That's exactly what I was looking at when I started considering this option. There's indeed an open source driver, which may be portable with some effort. Then there's an entire TCP/IP stack that needs to be made to work with this driver. And also some practical considerations such as how to configure the network etc (probably by connecting the IOIO to a PC over USB first). So I certainly believe this is possible, certainly agree that it would be a killer feature, but it's going to take considerable effort.
