Looks interesting, for $25 I'd buy me a couple and play around.

Yes. A nice foundation the team have going. Good to see David Braben on board too (Elite, Frontier)

Since the PI's CPU is ARM-based I wonder whether this little PC will be capable of running an Android build (2.2 for example). Although the CPU is only 700Mhz and ram is 256MB (for model B)

I recommend watching the Raspberry Pi Tutorial series on YouTube. Its a good starting point. The guy has a programming section (Python-based) in there too

There was a forum posting @ the rasberrypi.org of interest to porting android to it.
I would like to see that happen and then play with it

Linux is fine with me, porting Android would be interesting.
