plasma, umpc, etc

hi..

so we already have one SoC student looking to propose a mobile device project 
for plasma, and today i've received two possible offers for relevant hardware 
from manufacturers.

Plasma is at the point now where it's probably time to really start exploring 
it's possibilities on these devices. they pack a good amount of horsepower, 
so the initial work will be build env and UI related (such as Nathan 
Eckenrode's SoC project proposal).

now, i don't want to collect various bits o hardware here at the house. not 
only will i not have the time to use more than one or two devices, i think it 
would make a lot more sense to get as many interested hands as possible on 
these things.

so i'm looking for people who have some experience with plasma (you don't have 
to be a ninja, just have poked at some of the code, such as written widget or 
dataengine plugins, for example) who would realistically have interest, time 
and energy to explore plasma on these devices.

if that's you, please let me know what you'd want to do with the device (it's 
easier to convince people to mail hardware off if there's a concrete 
project/goal to go along with that) and i'll try to start hooking people up 
with the opportunity to play with some (free! =) hardware.
