Android makes a LOT more sense than Windows for Snapdragon.

I'm really interested in this, as while I love Linux, it's hardware support by OEMs is sporadic. This seems like a win/win if Qualcomm/Google can support their own hardware for 7+ years with security updates.

No matter what you think about arm, at least you know this will actually be in stock unlike anything AMD.

I'll probably end up with one since AMD doesn't seem to care about the laptop/handheld market at all.
