I guess you could always put Android , or Chrome on it.
But I will bet that speakup will work just fine.
Anyone want to recommend a good cli word processor?

Hi,

Yes, Arm is a different architecture, but that doesn't mean Speakup won't 
compile for it. Doesn't mean it will, but it seems to me that it should. 
Well, for $35, I reckon a bunch of us can get them and play around with 
them, anyway. I'm game. And, speak should work, I mean, they got it to work 
on Android, and most of those devices are Arm-based.
