Just wait till your shiny new device gets banned by an Apple lawsuit because... I dunno, let's say it has rounded corners or something.

I, too, run around yelling about my new toys and demanding people admire them.
Oh wait, no, I'm not 8 anymore.

The ARM architecture makes porting to android pretty much impossible.
You should have waited for a windows 8 phone/tablet.
They'll run The EVE client natively.

if :ccp: made anything for your tablet, they would probably end up bricking it or something.

Any chance the mac client would run on an i-PAD?

With the graphics improvements EVE is getting increasingly more hardware intensive to run. my laptop is starting to have difficulties and it ran multiple instances the client no problem two years ago. An android client, even a striped down one for just market access and skill training updates (no undocking) would be nice. But If they ever decide to do it, it won't be any time soon.

Better chance of getting them to expand the API features to allow approved third party programs to actually interface rather than just read data. send EVE mail as well as read it. update training ques not just view the status. Update market transactions. etc. Even that is not likely to happen any time soon.

If eve were available on tablet I would inevitably put it on my wife's iPad, this would serve only to give her something new to be annoyed at me about. In spite of this though, I'm on holiday in a few weeks and playing Internet spaceships at a swim up bar, with a cigar and a drink with an umbrella in it sounds very appealing.

No they won't. Windows 8 may support the ARM architecture, that doesn't mean the EVE client will natively run on it.

EVE would run terrible on a tablet, they just aren't powerful enough. EVE plays fine on a tablet/PC currently and needs no interference from CCP. Run EVE on your computer, remote access your computer with your tablet, BOOM EVE on a tablet. I do it on my smart phone, it works fine.

Windows 8 tablets won't be running on ARM. Those will be called Windows RT tablets.

Windows 8 is confirmed compatible with Eve.
Windows RT is confirmed incompatible.
