I will be buying a new PDA in a few weeks.  My Handspring Visor Edge still 
works fine and is the 4th in a line of Palm based products back to the 
original Palm Pilot 1000 (loved that thing).  Palm products have served me 
well.  It's just that I want more out of a PDA now.

I'd like to get one with Linux on it.  My options for such a product seem 
somewhat restricted:

- - Sharp Zaurus SL-5x00 and SL-6000 models look nice and I have drooled over 
them for a while now.  However:
- -- Sharp has discontinued the SL-6000 and sales of the 5x00 models as well.
- -- I have heard some bad stories about Sharp support.

- - iPAQ is a possibility and I have put Linux on some older models before.
- -- I'd rather buy one with Linux on it to start instead of paying for a 
different OS.

I know of no others that are readily available and either have Linux 
pre-installed or can have it installed on them.  Of course, the Palm 
envronment has worked well for me for the most part.  I could just get a new 
Palm based unit.  What I am exploring here are the possibilities and 
recommendations for a Linux PDA.

What do you all recommend as a PDA with Linux?

Alan

PS. Some refernece sites:
- - http://handhelds.org - all things about Linux on the iPAQ
- - http://www.linuxdevices.com/articles/AT8728350077.html - list of PDAs that 
use or can use Linux.  There are a lot of them there but if you eliminate the 
industrial ones, there are not very many that are still pruchasable products.
