JavaFX + UDOO

[Will Hoover]

I know there's has been a lot of energy to get JavaFX on the Raspberry PI
fully operational, but I thought I'd also suggest the evaluation of JavaFX
on UDOO ( http://www.udoo.org/ ). For those of you that are unfamiliar with
UDOO: it's a fully compatible Arduino board that can run Linux or Android
that has ~4x the processing power of the Raspberry PI at a $99 price point.
They have over $200k out of a KickStarter goal of $27k (
http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/435742530/udoo-android-linux-arduino-in-
a-tiny-single-board ). So, with that kind of funding and over 1.5k backers
under its belt, I think some JavaFX focus on the product could prove to
energize the JavaFX embedded community. IMHO, JavaFX support on an Arduino
product that has direct JavaFX accessibility (without multiple hardware
components) would be revolutionary! It has a planned release date of
09-2013, but I'm sure if Oracle contacted the UDOO team they would be
willing to part with a few prototypes to test JavaFX on :)
