The new Zauri (C3000) are USB host. The drivers are included in the Cacko ROM. It does also include BlueZ drivers for bluetooth.

p.s.:

Don't worry about your hair. ;-)

ok, there is a terminal application, called rxvt

now we just need a reasonable input method.

edit: FBReader doesn't work (yet).

Besides Zaurus, the Familiar distribution for the iPaQ series does contain modules for kernel 2.4.19, here

But the problem is going to be the dependence between packages; for sure we do not need another kernel, just the module... but perhaps also some /etc to describe the hotplug, not sure.

Thanks to everyone's input we revised our decision to start a new forum section for downloads. Instead, we set up a dedicated feed repository for iRex binaries.

To celebrate the moment, we opened another section: iLex Downloads
