Except this one is going to run a close to mainline kernel pretty soon and those android phones will be stuck in the last decade, forever.

  How soon is other software on it is usable? Kernel really doesn't matter too much if rest is unusable...

    It took Google tens of thousands of paid top tier developer hours to make Android useable. I'm betting never. In a year or two there's going to be some nasty passive aggressive apology blaming the woes of the world for why it couldn't happen and these guys will go home with their big sack of money. Seriously you want a shit Android ARM phone loaded with a beta Linux distro? Let's order a lot from Shenzhen and everyone can pay the $50 it's worth.

      "It took Google tens of thousands of paid top tier developer hours to make Android useable." Is that a guess, or a fact?

      Then Shenzhen manufactures should open source device drivers.
