I am thinking cheap arm processor+lcd screen+embedded linux+some keys = (cheap?) DIY tablet.
This could be a project which can make me learn embedded linux after all.
- angusgr 16y agoFor cheapie gizmos, you might want to look into the ARM9 VT8500 & WM8505 based netbooks and tablets. These are <$100, there is an Android port and a Debian port, vendor kernel source is available and there is also OSS kernel support being developed from scratch. Lots of fun to play with, on a budget. :)
- rick_2047 16y agoTo hell with the budget for now. I would love to learn all this, money can be arranged if I present a proper research proposal (with BOM) to proper authorities (Read my parents). I would have to start from scratch though, all of my experience has been in AVR and avr-gcc. Lets see how all of this works out.
