Cory Doctorow of BoingBoing.net wrote this post (http://www.boingboing.net/2010/04/02/why-i-wont-buy-an-ipad-and-think-you-shouldnt-either.html) last month on what it means to have a device that can be toyed around with, modified, tinkered, etc.Quite frankly, I imagine that Eken and other companies who are selling cheap devices like the Slatedroid are in it for a quick buck before they sell something else. They don't really care one way or another what you do with their products as long as you don't give them a bad name and there's nothing wrong with that.At the same time, I'm thankful for devices that can be easily modified to suit other purposes. Too many restriction and too much DRM keeps folks from having fun and more importantly, it keeps them from learning.I want to say kudos to those folks in this small community who have taken it upon themselves to take a new device and make it their own and I'm patiently waiting on the next stable firmware upgrade, hopefully with swap and a speed increase. ;D
