Somebody needs to root this radio and install Android on it but I really don't have a clue how to do that!

I don't think there's enough computing power in there to handle
Android. The CPU is a Telechips TCC8600 which is based on the ARM940T
processor core and there's a 4MB SDRAM chip along with a 512MB NAND
flash chip.

It'll probably run Linux, though. Ethernet is the Crystal CS8900A. I
forgot which WiFi hardware is in there, though.

Yeah, my other radio is running Linux so that should work.
