Sounds right. For the pen and interface I want the current Samsung stuff.

I want to avoid any bulk replacement of the system, I'd rather learn it and
adjust it myself, that's the reason I wanted an Android system (an ARM one) to
use everyday ... paired with a good desktop machine.

That was the way I got to know linux properly, after first using it only on
projects but using OSX daily. Then Apple dropped PPC and I wanted an pen, so
went to a Fujitsu Lifebook and Debian, which lasted me 6 years. But the last 4
years of that was doing a computing and maths degree, which certainly
accelerated the learning curve. I guess full-time study was my version of a
mid-life crisis after 25 years doing theatre projects freelance!
