While impressive, all you've really done is overclock the piss out of your phone and put an optimized VNC-type program on it. When a phone can run EQ natively, I'll be impressed. No dedicated video = Always being tethered to a PC. You are dependent on that PC working, not dropping connection, etc, or else you can't do anything.

For now, a Droid "running" eq is nothing more than a remote control imho, and it's worth is debatable at best because of the lack of a Bazaar or central trade hub.
Maybe, but again its fun, and thats worth something.
I did make a few hundred plat buffing lowbies and others today in a few zones using the setup.
The key difference is speed between this implementation and a generic VNC client. This is perfectly playable as it with relatively few bugs, VNC even on wireless is not.
As for EQ installed natively on an Android phone, ill l;eave THAT task to someone who wants to engineer the os itself and find a way to make a WINE equivalent emulation setup run on it, which may or may not run any better than this does.
