Maybe it's just because I'm new to the world of mobile computing and have missed something, but I couldn't find a single mobile hardware/software platform which is properly Free/open from top to bottom (i.e., friendly to people who don't mind getting their hands dirty), actively maintained, doesn't require me to screw myself over by taking on a contract which I can't afford (internet tablet would be ideal), and runs Pd. Is PDa still being developed?
i think a decent (with fpu) and completely free (like the neo/freerunner) device does not exist.
but there are a few which are less unfree than the i-thing:
as far as i have heard, rjdj is currently ported to android.
the new nokia 900 uses also a more or less free system (maemo), and pd already exists for the older (fpu-less) maemo based "web-pads".
the "zii-egg" also uses a linux derivative, and should be able to run pd.
maybe others.
bis denn! martin
