Stephen:
Thanks. It looks like the /proc/cpuinfo format changed at some point,
and we weren't parsing the model name correctly for ARM.
I checked in changes that will parse the /proc/cpuinfo examples you sent.
Hopefully this will also work on recent Android.
Rom, can you please test this on whatever Android devices you have?
