But I do have a Sharp Zaurus SL-C3200 linux PDA with a mini-notebook form factor whose 640x480 LCD swiveled 180 degrees and closed over the keyboard so as to have a (somewhat fat) PDA form factor. The hardware was mostly an improvement over the previous 320x240 Zaurus SL-5500, but its software didn't take advantage of the higher resolution and it never lived up to its promise. Someone even wrote a VNC server and client for the SL-5500, which was great. The server exported a facsimile of the display, keyboard, and buttons, which all worked. I never read any books on either one.
