At least with the pandaboard stuff in ICS AOSP, the beginnings of ethernet 
support are actually there. It was quite easy to wrap a user interface 
around what was there for setting physical IP address or dhcp.

I was able to patch in ethernet support and build a settings user interface 
to setup ip network address dns etc. I'm currently working on getting 
jellybean up to par so I can use ethernet in it appropriately.
