Doh!

You're right. No need for real HW to test an ARM port. QEMU would do the trick and there are several ways to create a pseudo ARM target system to run on your Linux box. I'm not an Android developer so there may be an easier path that way. Alternatively, you can create a full-blown Linux ARM SDK/tool-chain and development environment using stuff from the Yocto Project (http://www.yoctoproject.org/). I've built a complete cross-compile tool-chain there and used GDB to single-step through an ARM application running under a QEMU target system. So it's entirely possible . . . with little expense except for your time.

no jail to break, right in the settings there's a "developer mode"
that allows you to upload code directly from the SDK

and of course, there's qemu to run ARM code in your own PC
