Just thought maybe people would like to have an android netbook of their own.

yes, it works, but just barely, they say that they are releasing a new version next month

Okay so apparently you only need 1 of the rar files. I got it running on my asrpireone with ubuntu netbook remix in virtual box ose. It is glitchy as hell and can't do much, much cool as hell nontheless. Here are some screen shots.

Does this run like a ubuntu live cd? Just put disk in drive,reboot,and run? Will it erase any of my Windows partions? I just want to make sure before I try.

Like you said, put the disk in, reboot, and run

it's pretty cool, if useless 'till they get wifi etc working.


btw, has anyone figured out the power key? I can't seem to find it.

If your using a desktop,look on the tower,it should be that green light. :P But really,I don't think the power key is mapped,I pressed every button on my keyboard,and no power options.

Nor me. I found the menu key eventually (it's the "right click menu" key), but nothing for power. =(
