<div style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px;"> Just to clarify this part to Jason: freedom here also involves having full access to the hardware you buy. You can install Linux in most of tablets out there (as long as the boot loader is not locked), but usually not all the tablet hardware will work because of lack of drivers for 3G modem, wifi, GPU (3D acceleration), HDMI, etc, which exist for Android but Android's drivers are not full compatible with other Linux kernels, so you cannot use their drivers in traditional Linux distributions like Mer, (K)Ubuntu, OpenSuse, etc. Most tablet OEMs do not understand open source yet and we need to convince them to release the source code of the device drivers they use and/or have developed. That is also one the reasons Vivaldi has not been shipped yet. Having a full free tablet is not easy.</div>
