[lug] Good Linux PDA

[Bill Wimsatt]

For my purposes the SL-5500 has a better layout. As a remote, the flip
keyboard is not really functional. I agree that the new TFT display on
the C700 looks much nicer, but it is geared more as a mini-tabletpc
(that is their market).

Anyone familiar with the following device shown on Linuxdevices.com?

Mizi Research (Seoul, Korea) announced earlier this week the near-term
availability of a hardware/software developer kit for its Linu@
(pronounced 'Linu-ette') Embedded Linux distribution

Regards,
Bill

ahh, finally a topic with my expertise! Although I am no longer in the
Boulder 
area.. I got hired by Trolltech down here. woohoo!

Anyway- I have a c700 on my desk, and I must say, the best feature is
the 
screen. It is beautiful! Really crisp and clear. Much better than the
SL5xxx. 
Although, it is non reflective, so it is difficult to see outside. And
you can 
flip the screen around to have a mini tablet pc.
If you have money, get a c700 or better yet, a c750 or 760.
I have put together an openzaurus rom for c700 with Qtopia 1.7 on it.
and 
there is always Opie, if you dont like whats on it.

Anyway, if you have any questions about it, dont hesitate to ask.
