Linux Tablet Question?

[Michael D. Setzer II]

I have a Pengpod 1000 that runs both Andriod and Linux from a 32G SD 
card. The Andriod system works great, but the Linux with a virtual keyboard 
was very difficult to use, later got an usb keyboard and was an improvement, 
but since I mainly use Fedora was not happy with the distro that was 
included. I was looking at getting they newer 1040 which was going to have a 
quad core system and some other enhancements, but there funding project 
didn't meet the goal, so money was returned. They had done testing with a 
number of Linux versions, but never heard of a Fedora version? Anyone 
know of a tablet that works well with Linux, and with a Fedora release? Have 
a number of notebooks that have no real issues with the Fedora 19, but is 
linux just not interested in tablets? Or are tablets not interested in Linux?

Liked the ideal of a dual boot system with the Pengpod, but looks like that 
isn't going to be an option for further development. 

Thanks.

The Arm list may be the best bet to get feedback:
