Even though you compared just the two hardware products, you mentioned
explicitly that you tried LK8000 on the MIO. *I would like to mention
that XCSoar can run on the MIO, too. *The installation procedure is
the same.

I could not get the 1.6 version of the Streak to find XCSoar on
Android Market and could not install XCSoar

Several people have reported that problem with old Android versions.
So far, I could not check this, because all my Android test devices
have Android 2.x, and XCSoar runs just fine in the 1.6 emulator.

According to the Market statistics, 4.4% of all XCSoar/Android users
still have Android 1.6.

Today I tested the Bluetooth connectivity between the Streak and LX
Nano. Appears to work fine with the exception of task declaration.
Using a Win CE device the declaration to the Nano is possible through
SeeYou "ConnectMe" but I know of no way using an android base device.
I wish LX would make their output data public, so their products would
be more usable with other soaring programs.
