http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/06/dscf2650.jpg (http://www.engadget.com/2012/06/19/gooseberry-android-board/)If one of the aims of the Raspberry Pi (http://www.engadget.com/2012/06/01/raspberry-pi-impressions-the-35-linux-computer-and-tinker-toy/) was to embody the "do-it-yourself" ethos (http://www.engadget.com/tag/hacker/), then it's already succeeded. Annoyed at the wait for the education-friendly board to arrive, the anonymous creator of the Gooseberry decided to build their own. Looking reasonably similar to its inspiration, it's packing a 1GHzAllWinner (http://www.engadget.com/tag/AllWinner+CPU/) CPU, 400MHz Mali GPU, 512MB RAM and 4GB of onboard storage. It'll go on sale in the UK for £40 ($63) shortly, running Gingerbread and is capable of running HD video -- as demonstrated by the video we've got for you after the break.
