So, I'm looking at options to build/hack a
GPS device, combined with some sort of
embedded gentoo friendly Tablet.
I'm thinking of multiple channels
of audio output so it is a 5.1 mp3 player too,
for a boat or a RV or an car. Mobile so it can
be moved between vehicles with a quick connect
to sensors and speakers.
Nokia N900 or new N9 (I have an N9, but the N900 probably has more
hackers around it and cheaper second hand items)
Build something around a gumstix - not that cheap, but I think they have
all the bits ready to plug together. Probably low enough power you could
battery power it
Very easy to hack is a PC Engines Alix + laptop screen. (In some ways
that's called a 1 laptop per child I guess.... Add that to the list)
Good luck finding a Gentoo friendly tablet? I would be interested if
you find something?
Good luck
