Seriously, I don't think that we will need exploiting a hole to develop for the Iliad. Not when they're intending to release an SDK (call me optimist).
What i would prefer is that they load the uhci-hcd/ehci-hcd drivers in their embedded linux, and pressing some key combination on a attached usb keyboard forced the iliad to open a terminal instead of doing the normal init O:-). THAT would be useful (ok, an open ssh would be as useful as that ;-). Ok, it's just that the zaurus had that and it was very useful (albeit having and integrated "keyboard" made things somewhat easier).
