[PD] smartphone advice

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

THere are a number of developments in this regard:

- Pd (pd-gui-rewrite 0.43 branch) now builds directly for Android and  
Apple iPhoneOS.  Maemo should be pretty easy too.  No audio yet, but  
that's in the works.

- Pd has been available in the Debian-armel branch for a while, that  
means lots of devices if you are willing to install your own OS.  You  
can install Debian in parallel with Android.

- you can build PDa to run on a wide range of free distros, like  
Maemo, Familiar, Angstrom, OpenMoko, reware for ipods, Palms, etc.

rjdj runs well on iPhoneOS, so that means Pd can be made to work well  
there.  Android will take a fair amount of work to get up to the same  
level, but in the long run will probably be easier since the platform  
is a lot more open.
