You could try the pinenote

NOTICE: The PineNote is an experimental device. PineNote software is still in it’s infancy and therefore it is ONLY suitable for experienced developers. At present time, there is no default OS for the PineNote.

Yeah that doesn't seem like a good option for most people, especially considering they're charging $400 for a product that can be considered a prototype at most.
