It is Android, but some kind of stripped down and modified version of it. I've tried to find official info on it too, but what's out there is mostly power user speculation. The consensus seems to be that it's stripped down in that it boots faster and makes use of less standard features, but also modified to do things like support the pointer given that the screen is non-touch.
