Well, let me be positive. As far as we know, they could be thinking already in a 2.6 update. This should be very convenient for the usb and bluetooth layers (but no bluetooth in this hardware). On other hand, perhaps 2.4 is less resource hungy.
IIRC, the zaurus still runs 2.4.x because of the SD slot -- the module is closed-source and full of patents.

(The "S" in "SD" stands for secure, which, just like with tcpa, is not security for the user, but intellectual property bullshit)

Also, I'd second your worries about being resource hungry.
