Maybe I should rephrase it to 1)Use Rockbox as the OS or 2)Run Rockbox as an application Android I am not a developer myself, so can't answer some of your questions. Someone have mentioned this in the Rockbox wiki, so someone must have considered this or working on it. http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/SummerOfCode2008 The 2008 Google summer of code "Rockbox as an application on a Unix based smart phone" should pave the road towards running Rockbox on Android, right? http://code.google.com/soc/2008/rockbox/about.html >> Have you modified Android sufficiently to allow running native applications? Because if you can't run application native code, then theres not much sense asking about rockbox. From what I have heard from Jonathan Gordon, seems like there is some difficulty due to Android's java vs Rockbox's C language. But that's won't stop you using Rockbox as the OS itself, right? I mean if anyone is interested, we could donate some hardware, or lend you our development board to make this possible. I am sure our hardware specification is quite attractive. We have the MX31 development board, Linux and Win CE 5 BSP, and drivers so it is definitely doable if the anyone is interested. We designed and build this hardware, so we know everything about it and are happy to share anything u need it to allow Rockbox to run on it............... Cheers Eric
