Hi, I have followed the instructions in the first post and have Android running! Thanks!
So, poor noob would like some help  

- How do I get my Wifi CF turned on? I am not in a chrooted environment; having followed the instructions straight from the 1rst post. Or is that chrooted too?

- What's the way back to sharp rom if needed?

Thanks!

Edit wlan0 section in your /etc/network/interface. There are a couple of samples how to configure in the interfaces file. And don't forget to delete the gateway line in usb0 section.

By the way, I found this news very interrested this morning.

I emailed them yesterday, when they posted about a rumoured HTC device ready for march, to say "why wait, buy a zaurus!", and they replied later/this morning/? to say they were writing it up.

With a kernel capable of running Android you should be up and running in no-time. Let me know if you need help doing that.

I definitely would. I am not Linux-shy obviously, but not a super hacker either. I have only ever flashed Cacko ROMs on my Z, so I wouldn't know where to start...
