The specifications look reasonable. It'd probably be able to run
things other than Ubuntu as well, depending on how many evil binary-only
modules are necessary for the hardware bits.
Are there any applications out there for x86 that are usable on a
device with just a touchscreen? Lots of X11 programs seem to assume
that precision mousing is available, and capacitive touchscreens fail at
that. It'd probably need a keyboard, at least. Entering text on
android devices with any of the keyboard widgets I've tried is like
trying to paint while wearing oven mitts. But bluetooth and a bluetooth
gamepad could mean a nice portable fceu/snes9x/psemu setup, perfect for
long plane trips.
