how is the battery life? I heard softwares for Freerunner are not optimized for battery life yet, right? How about this Android?

[VDVlinux]

Yes, Android isn't fully optimized for Freerunner yet, so the battery only last about 6/7 hours.

How's the scrolling?

[VDVlinux]

Works normally without any problem, I only test it in the menus. The wifi doesn't work at the moment, i was unable to test the browser scrolling.

I know, but for the video is better use the stylus :)

Does android come with a terminal? I want to be able to compile and run perl, python, C and bash scripts on it.

Replace ### with one period.
