Raspberry Pi, Nook Simple Touch, and Pandora

I recently ordered a Nook simple touch which is a touch screen e-ink display that is capable of running android. It cost 35 dollars shipped so I figured I had to find a use for it.


Since it can run android, and thus run a vnc client, I thought that I could use it as a display and input for a raspberry pi. My plan right now is to create a touch friendly GUI for controlling pandora. Eventually I want to incorporate other features and display options in it but for now, this will provide a simple introduction and goal for me to finally learn python.
