What is the smallest Linux PDA? Open Zaurus or not. Can it be converted to English?

Open Zaurus is not a PDA. Is a replacement operating system for the Zaurus. (Hopefully the OZ/OE zealots won't nitpick).

I think the smallest linux PDA is the agenda VR3 and it is already in english. But you probably won't want it. The Zaurus A300 is pretty small too but I think it is now hard to find. It can be converted to english like all Zauruses.

The ipaq h2210 is probably the smallest linux capable pda.

dimensions of the ipaq h2210 are:
3.01 in x 4.54 in x 0.61 in

dimensions of the zaurus a-300:
2.7 in x 4.4 in x 0.5 in
and it comes with linux pre installed.

True, but he wasn't asking about availablility, only what was the smallest pda.

To bad the sl-a300 is so hard to find. I have a h4150 which I believe is similar in size as the 19xx/221x. It seems like a significant amount of work would be involved with getting linux up on the h4150 and no WLAN support is available yet. What would the smallest Linux PDA be which can be purchased easily and on which the os installed relatively easily?
