I want to play with Linux (inc. maybe Android) on ARM platforms, and figured the Raspberry Pi would be a good target platform, albeit hard to get my hands on right now.
Has anyone here played with this who can give me any suggestions as to where I should start? I can see various suggestions on the R.Pi website (QEMU or Scratchbox) so I'm really just asking to seek the benefit of anyones experience here, otherwise I'll pick one of the examples out there and see where it gets me.
Separately: I've not done a lot with ARM in the past. How transferable are skills learned (and code written) between ARM platforms? I quite like the look of some of the ARM dev boards you can get on eBay, for example, and I'm sure the range of options will only increase over time, so I don't want to tie myself to the R.Pi any more than I need to at this stage.
