While slightly more powerful (still, after all these years), the OpenPandora (http://openpandora.org/ http://openpandora.org/) seems similiar enough that its OS should work on the Pi.
The original specs for the OpenPandora also called for 256 MB of RAM, it has only recently been upgraded to 512 MB, since sourcing the original chip turned impossible.
I'm sure this has been tried already by the (rather active) OpenPandora hackers, wasn't able to find anything quickly though.

If you need performance and graphics: PandaBoard ES (182$, dual 1.2GHz, 1GB RAM, wifi) BeagleBoard-xM (140$, 1GHz, 512MB RAM) If you need a small form factor ("Altoid"-size): BeagleBone (90$, 700Mhz, 256MB RAM) All are able to run the latest official Ubuntu ARM release e.g.
- unwind 15y agoYeah ... It's expensive. I paid less, but on the other hand (which is a rather painful hand, at this point) I also haven't actually received it yet, due to various manufacturing problems that are now being straightened out by shifting factories. And also, of course the OpenPandora is more of a consumer electronics product in a case, with custom controls optimized for gaming, it's not a bare circuit board.
