Hi all, 
This is knowledge-share for anyone who has Android phone or tablet and interested in getting Linux distro onto your android phone or tablet.
I just purchased a $150 Nook Color (ereader), jailbreak it, and got Android installed.  With Android in place, install Linux with the Linux Installer app was pretty smooth.

Have fun

Btw, after jailbreaking your Nook Color, yes you can still read your ebooks, pdf files, and doc with app like adobe reader, qPDF, etc.
