        I have a related issue that maybe someone can help me with.
        idon't have a cell phone; rather, I dont have a new, bleeding-edge
        cell because of my impaired speech.  but I am looking to buy a
        small box or tablet.  something that runs some variant of "unix"
        that I can install linux or android over and program.

        I've already got an eee-900A with 16gig of SSD.  time to try
        something else that has [1] a keyboard, and [2] a speaker.
        I'm looking for some small platform for my "voice-by-computer"
        gtk-accessibility program for the speech impaired.

        any ideas?

        tia,
