Any serious Android developer, and there are a lot of them, will be familiar with Hardkernel's lineup of developer-only tablets. Granted, these devices feature hefty price tags which makes them unavailable to many. The good news for developers is that the Korean company is now releasing an Android development board boasting the same quad-core CPU found in the Samsung Galaxy S3. If that wasn't impressive enough, this product, the Odroid-x is priced at only $129.
