Sure! Probably a small job. I'll submit a patch tomorrow to port
debian to android.

Well, Debian does call itself the 'Universal Operating System'. Maybe that 
phrase should be rethought since it doesn't run on all devices. Worthy 
thought, but not reality.

Debian should run on the Gemini PDA, an Android handhold device.
In dual boot.
It is not ready yet though.
Should be ready this month.

I am currently working on getting a wifi kettle port of Debian up and 
running. Should be done by Thursday, just need to finish soldering a 
serial port to it.

This is a very interesting device (and not a joke as other commenters
might have thought!) for the curious:

I was going to say a while back in yet another tangential digression
that the trend in personal computing (outside of the work environment,
at least) is toward mobile devices (notably smartphones) where Linux (as
an OS--yes, I see you coming from here) is virtually absent.

True but not completely absent.  I've been using my Pandora [1] for
several years now and am looking to upgrade to the Pyra [2] when it
comes out (this year hopefully).

The default OS on the Pandora is Linux based although not Debian;
however, you can install Debian (and other distributions) and I been
using Debian for quite some time now.  With Debian, the system looks
and behaves just like my desktop or laptop.

The Pyra will ship with Debian.

Are there any mobile devices [ *EXCLUDING* smartphones] in current 
production and available in the US. I know of some crowd funded projects 
in that direction. Some to "be available real soon now" ;/

Another bite at the cherry? Worth a try. :)
