THIS is why I am majoring in Computer Engineering. If I'm very very lucky, I'm aiming for a job right there at the TI OMAP department. Assuming the world doesn't become radioactive first.

Android for OMAP35XX devices. I tried to boot my Pandora from a pre-built image but to no avail, the SD card doesn't even show up after running install script.
