Not possible, simply because there's closed binaries, missing code, and usually undocumented. On top of that, the drivers aren't quite optimized for battery life, performance and stability.

But I just figured out a MUCH MUCH better Neo900.
Get a company-aided and community backed device. Basically a qwerty-based Chinese smartphone with the Allwinner A10 SoC.

That's got all the documentation available; porting possible.
And its got chops powerful enough to match the GTA04.

Better yet, its high volume and low cost... and available now.
