I have the iPaq and am just now updateing it to the newest distribution.
I have to say that it is flat out awsome. jffs (journeld flash file
system) is awsome. ipkg (light weight dpkg) is as awsome as it is on
debian. Most of the technical issues are shakeing out and apps are
starting to come along nicely.
This system is ready for deveolpers to start tearing into it and will
soon be ready for end users.
