I've used Palm PDAs for a while and Linux on my home pcs and laptops. I'm thinking about getting a Zaurus SL-5500 Linux PDA off ebay as a PDA upgrade. My Palm doesn't have wifi, memory expansion, or a color screen-all things I'd like and that an old Zaurus has. I see there is still plenty of OpenSource software available for it-an mplayer Zaurus PDA port is one.

I use MPlayer on my Linux box at home to stream in internet radio. Could I do this on a Zaurus SL-5500 through headphones and have a portable internet streaming radio device?

Yes. I use mplayer to do this on my SL-5500. There was another shareware product called zradio or something that I used for a while, too.

There is a "shoutcast player" thread that links to a decent shoutcat player for qtoipia around here.

I'm not sure for a 5500, but kino2 also does shoutcast. It just doesn't go out and retrieve a list of radio stations.
