   @liate Oh! So that's about running GNU on Android rather than running Android under GNU. Haven't heard that before. I was thinking more of what Sailfish did with an alternative Dalvik implementation.

     Can we all agree that one of these with modern specs and, say, Plasma Mobile would be the /best pocketable computer ever/‽‽‽‽‽‽

     @liate I miss my physical QWERTY. These screen keyboards suck.

     @gaditb @liate I used it and I liked it. I like physical QWERTY better.

     @liate Just so that I'm being super clear on this: Would buy. Could pay at least 600 USD for one. Talking about the hardware aspect now: Modern smartphone plus QWERTY.
     
     But dunno Plasma Mobile. I would want it to be able to run most Android apps at least.

     @liate People are apparently running Sailfish on the old Xperia Pro, but the Alien Dalvik/Dalvik Turbo software Jolla uses is proprietary, so no F-Droid.
