Android needs an X Server or a Wayland client. Get me one of those and I'll be all over that like peanut butter on toast.

And working with the capacitive N950 has taught me that desktop Linux is tricky to use with a resistive screen, where you can use the stylus to hit the tiny little buttons, but almost impossible to use with a capacitive screen, where you've got to use your fat fingers.
