[Jason Prini .com] I was thinking that the lack of PIM software for the Nokia 770 makes is a non-palm {although with wifi/BT internet you could ust use web services}. But since the device is Linux, one should be able to run a version of apache server, and run your own web apps right off a RS-MMC card. That 800x600 display is what makes it so great. If you’ve tried to view the web on a cell phone or even a palm it’s just not the same as your desktop experience.

Shortly after buying the Zodiac, Nokia made headlines with their Nokia 770 Linux device and I figured I'd try the same. So I loaded up the Mail and Web clients that come with the Zodiac (the Web app is on the CD, by the way, I bought some other crappy browser before I realized this) and I found a chat app as well. I sprung for a SDIO WiFi card from Palm at Fry's in a gadget-buying frenzy before I realized you can just as easily share out your Internet connection on your computer via Bluetooth and use it that way (it works great).
