The Raspberry Pi might have captured the hearts and minds of geeks across the world, but it's not the only barebones board out now. Via's less programming-focused Android-packing APC went up for pre-order and sold out within a day; sounds familiar doesn't it? Read More >>

At under £30 all in, including delivery, you'd be hard pressed to find anything that competes on price and sheer awesomeness with the Raspberry Pi, but that hasn't stopped Via trying. Meet the Via APC, an ARM-based board that runs Android for just £32. Read More >>

This is why people love Android. You can spend £500 on a Galaxy Nexus, or £99 on a T-Mobile Vivacity. Obviously the Viv isn't as powerful, but Android 2.3 on a 3.5" screen for £100 is "Black Friday" levels of cheapness. Read More >>
