Yes, it does sound good. fpp, thanks for the pointer.

I also came across Pluthon: http://pluthon.garage.maemo.org/
and it looks like it would be possible to develop Eagle/Python apps in Eclipse (on any platform) and deploy and test directly on a tablet. No Scratchbox required.

Plus PLuthon uses Pydev which is very nice - I don't suppose it can use the Pydev debugger(?), but you can log to the Eclipse console from an app. running on the tablet.

Has anyone done this? I plan to try it out soon so any caveats would be welcome.
