Hi :)
No. At least i think the answer to that is no
I think "how many might" is a moving target. At the moment those devices are
probably not seen as good things to use to edit documents.
Pi is more about learning programming and building bits of hardware. Android
is more about just catching little snippets of information and looking up odd
things before arriving at home or at the office. If you planned to work on
documents on-the-move then you would probably use something larger than a
netbook.
LO could change all that. With a docking station
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Docking_station
hand-held, mobile and just tiny devices could really start to take-over from
desktops for certain usages. Also while "on-the-move" LO provides more options
and more easily for minimising the UI so that screen's "real estate" could show
more of a document while still having a useful menu or customised tool-bar.
It'd be interesting to see if Android started becoming even more popular
because it becomes "an office in your pocket" due to LO.
Of course desktops still have a greater capacity to be more powerful, greater
local storage and easier to tinker with, fix and upgrade but people are all
excited about moving to mobile devices. LO has an opportunity to be ahead of
the game a bit. especially with all the good work that has gone into
stream-lining the program over the last couple of years.
