I actually own such a device (the Nokia N800) and indeed, being able
to do something like that would be very useful.  The onscreen keyboard
is OK for short input, but not for complicated things.

The built-in window manager is rather limited (very well suited to the
majority of users, I think), and I've given thought to putting Ion3
there.  The majority of the work would be in eliminating right-click
actions, to be replaced with tap-and-hold, and in ensuring that the
keyboard is not needed.  Any other Ion3 users with interest in the N800?
