Subject: Re: tablet for SCaLE trip?
I have a Transformer Hans. I will bring to to Stammtische tonight so you
can look it over. I have no idea whether Cyanogen is working on modding
it. I do know someone has ported an earlier version of ubuntu to run on it
but the article said it was not complete and they had no idea about a newer
ubuntu.

Todd says the Ubuntu Tablet is doing nothing but talking so I don't look
for anything from there anytime soon.
