Howdy,
 I ran across a little Linux device that may be interesting to some
members.  It was sold as a text messaging device.  It has an arm cpu,
802.11b/g wireless and a 240x320 resolution screen.  It is being
phased out because the interfaces it used for free text messaging are
going away.  There is an active community developing Linux distros for
the device and it is not locked down, as far as I can tell.  There is
a wholesaler who is selling these and if we can get enough interest to
buy 16 units, the price is only $10 each plus shipping.  Is there
interest from other people in the group in putting a group buy
together?  I'll coordinate it, since I want a few units for me.  See
some details at: http://linux.zipitwireless.com/
Good day,
Ralph
