No idea if this would be feasible on the eDGe:

Nifty though.

You'd probably have to kiss-off the eInk display, and even then I'm not sure how it would continue to complicate an Ubuntu implementation. Ubuntu is also somewhat processor dependent, and a lot of Linux apps only run on Linux versions they are packaged for.

If you have any interest in this, just get a Galaxy Tab and have done with it. Unless of course, you have far more hair than you really need!
