Opie is the Linux handheld OS. There is iPaq support for this beast. Haven't quite got started on my jouney to handheld Linux, but I'm close.
Anyone else tried iPaq with Opie?

Got all the project history etc. I misspoke earlier. Opie is the GUI for a linux based handheld.
Familiar is the Linux portion: http://familiar.handhelds.org/#whatis
They have downloadable images of everything you need to get started and very detained instructions. I may begin my odessy sooner than expected.
Any other takers???
I will bite...eventually...If I had a spare PPC I would do it in a heartbeat...I plan to have a new PPC in mid Feb...so this Ipaq 3835 will be my experimental device....so, give me a couple of weeks and I will try this out....by the way will this Linux based PDA sync up with Outlook and what sync software do you need?
