Kapil, I just saw your link to androidminipc.net . That device is just amazing. I still remember having read a news about a similar device coming with ubuntu pre-installed. This devices are amazing, ultra portable, but they will always need a monitor or TV to get attached with. They are of know use without a monitor.
