Converting Your Device to Work with Linux, or Buying a Unit with it Pre-Installed

Filed in archive Linux , PDAs , Smartphones , Software by Rico Mossesgeld on September 5, 2006

I came across TuxMobil for the first time when their page on converting a Sharp PDA to work with Linux got my attention. Only recently did I dig deeper, surfing throughout the site. I realized that TuxMobil had much more to offer to Linux Lovers.

TuxMobil apparently provides instructions for other devices, both smartphones and PDAs. Brands include Palm, HP, Dell, Nokia, Sony-Ericsson, and even Handspring. It's a shame there's no guide for HTC. Imagine how Linux peeps would be able to maximize the manufacturer's high-end models' (like the TyTN) specs.

But I'm not a techie! No worries, there's also a list of units with Linux pre-installed.
