I've heard about that, but I think it will be not powerful enough to run GIMX as-is. It probably will require to build a lighter app.

What's more interesting is the possibility to make the device work as a "usb proxy" (in the case the board has both usb host and usb otg), just like the XIM3!

Could i compile GIMX on ubuntu ?

Sure you can.

I wrote a few instructions on the googlecode page: link

I too plan on getting one when it will be released ^_^
