Agenda - Linux-Powered PDA... any thoughts?

[thekingofpain]

I wonder how much that will be?
How bout on a Palm, they can be had cheaply enough to experiment with? http://pocketlinux.com/ http://www.handhelds.org/

I'm suprised a forum search didn't bring any threads up about the Agenda PDA... I'm seriously thinking about getting one of these. Does anyone have one? If so, please tell us what you think!

A few links I've found:

The asking price is $249.. and, since just about anything you can run on regular linux can work on the Agenda (with a little tweaking of course), there is already some interesting applications available... like a game boy emulator, and the apache web server! Just imagine serving web pages from your PDA... very cool http://www.sysopt.com/forum/smile.gif or telnetting to your favorite MUD... It also has a powerful infared port, so you can use it as a universal remote too! (oooh, maybe I could write an app to talk to Furbies with it http://www.sysopt.com/forum/smile.gif)

There is also an ethernet adapter in the works too (a couple I think).

Man, I really want to get one of these http://www.sysopt.com/forum/smile.gif


So what do you guys think?
