There are a couple of other cheap-but-powerful SoCs too BTW, I just
named this one because I read about them recently (they sell their SoC
for 5 USD or less if you order large amounts from them).

> with a capacitive touch screen and no hdmi out? 

FWIW: HDMI is supported internally by the SOC so, simply said,
manufacturers just need to connect a physical HDMI connector to it...
(The Allwinner A10 also has on-chip SATA support, which is quite
exceptional for this type of SoC).

An example of such a tablet, costing 150 USD:
http://www.amazon.com/Advanced-II-Screen-Android-Camera/dp/B00784IZIK/ref=sr_1_2/176-6600645-3756217?ie=UTF8&m=A2J97EBTNQJ0RV&s=generic&qid=1330113443&sr=1-2
(And you can find even cheaper ones.)

Lots of similar tablets are sold rebadged to local supermarket brands,
so I won't be surprised if they turn up in your local Carrefour or Aldi
or Blokker some of these days...

There are cheap (± 150 €) Android tablets (mostly based on the Allwinner
A10 SoC) that should be able to run this...

 but first priority is to "root" your device (I believe Aldi is again
 selling their android smartphones for 199euro... only drawback is that it
 doesn't have a hdmi to connect it to your television set... )
 Perhaps an "android tablet" is better?

 I went crazy when I saw it. Basically you're android phone can run
 Ubuntu, and when you connect it to a desktop it will show you Ubuntu
 Desktop running Unity2D, and when you connet it to a tv it will give you
 the Ubuntu-tv interface.
 I don't know what you guys think of this, but I think it's big!

I went crazy when I saw it. Basically you're android phone can run Ubuntu,
and when you connect it to a desktop it will show you Ubuntu Desktop
running Unity2D, and when you connet it to a tv it will give you the
Ubuntu-tv interface.
