On the topic of Android devices; it would be nice to have a commercial source for an out of the box IOIO system.
It seams that the IOIO is only available in a kit form, that is in parts... soldering, etc. required, mostly over my head at least in my case.....

I would like a commercial source for one as well.

I am using a nifty little device called Androport from Glidertools in the Czech Republic .
I use it to supply my Nook (or any other Android device) with data from my C302 plus enough power to actually charge the Nook while in flight.
When I used the phone I notice that there is insufficient power to actually charge the battery but it does slow down the discharge rate.

Unfortunately, Glidertools seems to be no more as I would like to have had another one. I'm surprised that no one else has produced such a gizmo to fill this void.

I had several dealings with Vladimir at Glidertools: all good.
Unfortunately this business venture was either not paying off for him or maybe he got busy with other things in life....
At any rate it is rather unfortunate that there is no other source ( worldwide?) for connectors, cables, IOIO devices, etc.
Cumulus sells the Goddard products but primarily for items they market, can't say I fault Paul.
