Looking for Linux Cell Phone/PDA Recommendation

Am 30. May, 2007 schwätzte Erich Newell so:

Doesn't look as large as Treo, but the article says it's Linux based.

Any other Linux based phones actually available in Phoenix?

Do the helio phones work with GNU/Linux? What OS do they have?

I'd rather go the other way, simplify the phone. It needs to handle
connecting to the networks, base handset ( dialing, mic and speaker ) and
bluetooth ( or other local wireless ). The I use something like the Nokia
N800.

Even better would be a way to separate the processor from the display
device such that I could use different displays depending on the
environment. Unfortunately, no one seems to want to offer such a product
and I don't have the money to develop one.

I don't know of any place that'll rate the devices for survival rate in
motorcycle accidents... :)

ciao,
