Don't forget the young women :)
But yes, good ARM and android support would be awesome, although 
native code isn't exactly something that's heavily encouraged on 
android unfortunately.

As an aside: Africa is heavily dominated by smartphones, due to 
the relative ease of building a mobile infrastructure v.s. a 
landline based model, as well as good resilience to 
poor/unreliable power supply.
