Also I forgot to mention this thing can do 1080p video playback with pretty much any format with VLC in Ubuntu. This thing can also run a great deal of Linux Applications such as Pidgen, Gimp, Abiword, Gnumeric, ETC. It also comes with Android 2.1.

Rockchip, telechip, and a whole bunch of others do it this way.

Well Smart Devices released yet another Mid it is essentially a SmartQ v5 without Windows Ce however there some key differences. The price is cheaper it is around 85-100 US Dollars depending on were you buy it and where you live in the world.
Specs
Operating System: Android and Ubuntu
Processor: 600mhz Samsung Arm11 processor that is overclockable 800mhz
Ram: 256mb ddr2
Screen: 4.3inch 800x480 resistive touchscreen
Connectivity: 802.11b/g WiFi, HDMI USB 2.0 Slave, USB 2.0 host, and Bluetooth2.0+EDR
Storage: 2gb with SDHC Expansion
Sure the device really isn't all that special in terms of hardware or software but it nicely priced at 100 dollars you can get it here http://www.allpmp.com/goods-380-Smar...Tablet+PC.html
It is a nice budget friendly alternative to the Nokia n900 and OpenPandora for folks looking for a pocketable Linux box. The thing is also nice because I can run both Ubuntu and Android.
