It would probably be a better idea to create an IP reservation on the DHCP server, based on the MAC address of the device.
This way you don't have to reconfigure the address should you wipe the device, replace the firmware (switching back and forth from Android to Linux), or pull it from a drawer a year from now, not remembering what static IP you gave it.

It also guarantees that it will work without a problem if you bring it to a friend's house (provided they have DHCP on their network, which is most likely the case).
