Here are some discussions:

I haven't tried this so I don't know how easy it is. Good luck.

Woah there, buddy.

There are two versions of Android for the tablets, and they are both awful ... (no offense intended towards the developers)....

1. The version of straight Android that installs inside of Maemo
Hardly runs... I think you *might* be able to click the screen... maybe...

2. NITdroid
Installs as a replacement of Maemo, but has no sound (which is a big buzzkill IMO)

So... let's *not* tell people they should use these as Maemo replacements... Diablo still pwnz until Mer comes out.

Thank you for your time.
