Be that as it may, I have never heard of a project that is reliable and still supported. Mark Shuttleworth has given up his project. There are projects that are doing more than an averaged rooting or jailbreak, so you can replace the operating system with more or less reliable drivers and there are probably also DIY hardware projects available, but even then you likely need to buy expliciet hardware components and I doubt that those projects are very reliable. Even fishy energy-saving is already a showstopper. Just my 2 Cents, Ralf
