Hello,

everything is in the title,
can we buy a tablet like an iPad, Eee Pad, Samsung whatever, etc...?
the kind of thing with Android or something else, remove that Android or something else, and install a Linux distribution?

Thank you for your feedback on experiences!

    In this case, I can target my request:
    - the distribution: it doesn't matter, as long as it manages touch and all that Mihawk.
    - the tablet: for me, the Asus eee pads. But if you know of any more Linux-compliant tablets or others that are absolutely not, feel free to share, it's always useful I think.

    And the distribution: it must handle touch and multitouch!

    It all depends on the tablet...
