There are still significant barriers before we’ll see anything remotely functional, though. The developer states that they are currently writing drivers to make it work, as currently, the software doesn’t boot past the Android logo. Even if it does get to a bootable stage, there is no guarantee that it will work in any predictable way as these are homemade drivers. While it may be possible to utilize some of the drivers from the Switch’s Operating System (or even the Nvidia Shield in the case of the Tegra chipset), there’s no telling how stable it will actually end up being.

An full working android tablet may never happen, but this is quite interesting.
