What Do You Guys Do With A Zaurus?, I know what I want to do, what about you? Options

I'm slow. I just found out about these not too long ago. I'm trying to decide between a 3100 or a 3200. I want to try out a few linux flavors (and maybe OpenBSD), use it for offsite monitoring of my home network, and some light emulation.

So I pose the question to you guys, 'What do you do primarily with your Zaurus?'

So is it easier to thumb type or use a usb portable keyboard with these things? What are you guys using for text input?

depends on what you are doing at the time, I use a palm universal wireless keyboard through IPK when I have to do a lot of typing

So the IR palm keyboard works well on the Zaurus? How much fiddling does that take to work? How's the keymapping?

the palm wireless keyboard works great on the zaurus! I had to install the "irk-zaurus-j" which is ver. 0.11.1f. Once installed, Palm wireless was one of the choices from a drop down list--and it worked. Almost all the keymapping is the same as the layout on the ir keyboard.....there is no cancel button and a few palm fn keys are disabled/not in use. But other than that--it works great. I still have to play around with some of the features, I can assign hotkeys/buttons for the keyboard
