Dual-Core Android PC Now Comes On a USB Stick 178
absolut.evil writes "FXI Technologies has taken a dual core smartphone-esque computer and put it into a little USB stick. Neat. This allows you to plug into anything with a screen, USB port, and input device and run your own instance of Android. It weighs 21 grams and contains 'a dual-core 1.2-GHz Samsung Exynos ARM CPU (same as in the Galaxy S II), 802.11n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, HDMI-out and a microSD card slot for memory.'"

Though the current prototype runs Android 2.3, Borgar told us that the ARM-based hardware can run Ubuntu Linux currently and future versions should be able to run the ARM version of Windows 8.
With Ubuntu installed, the Cotton Candy can even be turned into a mobile file or web server!
RTFA next time.
RTFA? RTFA?!?!?!

Large metropolis, 7:30 Monday morning, a train heading towards the CBD:
Commuter1: "Caw"
Commuter2: "Caw-caw"
Commuter3: "Caw-caw, caw-caw"
Commuter1: "Caw-ca-caw-caw"
Commuter3: "Caw-caw-caw-caw"
Commuter1: "Caw-caw, Damn, hey Commuter3, keep it down will you? I'm in the middle of a game!"
Commuter3: "Shut up Commuter1, you stupid loser, Caw-caw-caw-caw-caw-caw....caw!"
Commuter2: "Hey guys, stop arguing, it's interfering with my game"
Commuter1: "Fuck you Commuter2, I just lost the high score, want me to come over there and help you? Caw-Caw! How d'you like them birds?"
