Yeah, the Sprint phone is interesting. I'll enjoy seeing linux run on
it, but I wonder if you'll still be able to make phone calls... If
you've got USB host, bluetooth and wifi most of your problems are
solved, but I still like my head-mounted display, which CF is needed
for in absence of VGA out. Now if it had USB2, I bet some smart person
could make a USB->VGA adaptor...
