[Motherboard]

Ok im glad you get it :) ive searched those sites for a "development board"

are you talking about just a plain bread board? or are there ARM specific development boards?  Also could you supply me with a link to what your talking about.

Finally do you know where I could buy an a9 ARM chip?

[Motherboard]

I am interested in developing an android powered device.  I know many people are going to say you will never do that blah blah... just bare with me, I'm determined, your ranting wont do any good.  I am confident in my abilities as a coder to alter the android OS to work with my device.  However, I don't even know what the specifications are for a motherboard or where to start.  There are 100000 different ways you could hook up thinks like memory and a camera to a ARMv7 cpu.  Does anyone have any idea of what the hardware requirements are or where I should start.  Because not all of those 1000000 combos will work with the code.  There must be some sort of requirements out there

Thank you
