n800 goodness
Yes, I got one too. Yes, it friggin rocks. I've already gotten a 2GiB SD card for it, put ssh, xchat, and an xterm on there, and generally use it everyday. My only gripe is that the email client can't really be used because it doesn't support reading from anything other than the Inbox. I'm looking into getting pine on there, but right now I can just use ssh+mutt on the remote machine.
The hostside development platform seems fairly nice. It uses scratchbox as a base and Xephyr for display on x86. Oddly though, you have to turn vdso support off in your kernel to make scratchbox work. This is somewhat frustrating but not a showstopper by any means.
I have no data plan with my cellphone (yet), so I haven't tried using that as the internet connection, but supposedly it works just fine. The wireless on it is superb, picking up access points none of my other machines can even see. Hopefully I'll be able to find a small bluetooth fold-up keyboard to use with it.
