I was interested in one, once, but you can get a much more powerful Android phone for the same price as a Pi
Really? Without a contract? I wouldn't mind a link to one.
I was curious about this as well and his claim actually isn't as far off as you might think. Amazon's got prepaid phones that support HDMI output starting around $220. Personally I've got about $90 into my Pi, counting the SD Card and case. If you also want WiFi that's another twenty bucks, plus another $13 for a powered USB hub since the Pi itself can't put out enough juice. A phone's still more expensive, but isn't too much more when you consider it'd also have a built-in display, battery, and GSM or CDMA radio.
