Title: Another Nail In The Coffin

Another nail in the coffin of what ?

If you mean Zaurus, I think it's a long way off: Inferior screen resolution, no CF slot for expansion. If it had built in WiFi, BT, micro DVI connector and >VGA screen then maybe.
We don't know yet if it will possible to install Linux, probably, but it's a lot of work.

Take it easy, it's not worth worrying about.

agree... I get GlobalSources magazine and there are dozens of SonyUX-like media players, Zaurus-like dictionaries, and none of them are anything more than crappy toy things which make the Nintendo seem like rocket science!
