Please correct me if I'm wrong, but am a little surprised at the
interest in TOR on Android - Android seems a closed, phone-home "cloud"
computer with little/no regard for privacy or anonymity. I'd always
wonder about a nice little log somewhere on my phone and/or in the "cloud".
OTOH, IIUC, The N900 can be configured as a traditional lap/desktop.
(Arguably, one may want to hold out for an entirely open-source meego
N900 with the new Intel chip)
