One really good thing about nV android devices is that you can always get it to recover no matter how badly you screw up partitions/software.

If I were to shop for Shield I would care about: "SHIELD Open Source and Binary Driver Release". Did they really published source code with all comments? Would be great step up allowing many optimization methods, new features.
