Is the Nanopi2 no longer in production and no longer available; if so, what is there that is at least equivalent to it that is obtainable?

Thanks, I didn't see where the fire 3 included wifi and Bluetooth and with just the one USB port it does not seem there is a much room for adding them if necessary. That was my only reason for not considering it an improvement.

What would be a good method of providing additional USB ports?

Well thanks again,

It so happens I was able to secure a NanoPi M2A today along with an LCD S702. It has a Quad-Core Cortex-A9 with 4 USB 2.0, wifi and Bluetooth.

I loaded Android 5.1 on to the SD plugged it in and booted it up, worked like a charm. Logged on to the wifi got on Play and downloaded and installed the app I want to use this for and started it. All works great; I almost thought I was looking at my Nexus 7, touchscreen as well as USB mouse.
