I say "potentially" because the setup requirements could vex some, and there are already some mobile solutions for using SL:

iOS folks have Pocket Metaverse, while Androidees have the most impressive Lumiya. Still, Luca's solution looks to bring better graphics and more functionality. If you do give it a try, post your personal impressions below.

I was able to get this to work and it works okay. It's hard to control your character without having the on-screen avatar and camera controls but it looks fine. It only took a minute to install the software on my computer and phone.

I have been doing this for a while, it works great. Easy to control if you have a bluetooth keyboard for your tablet or phone.
