The subject line pretty much says it all.  Is there support
on Linux for PDAs/organizers other than the 3Com Palm Pilot?
For example the Sharp Wizards (OZ-730PC), Royal DV3 DaVinci,
or Casio PV-400Plus.  Any pointers would be appreciated

Thanks,

Mac Cody

I don't know about the ones you mentioned, but the compaq ipaq is
supported and some others that use ARM CPUs.

Sorry I wasn't clear enough.  What I meant is Linux support
for upload/download to the above-mentioned PDAs/organizers.
Not Linux running in the devices themselves.  I'd like to use
a PDA/organizer for text editing while commuting and
upload/download text to my Linux box.  Hope that is clear
enough.

Thanks again,

Mac Cody

Have you checked out http://www.agendacomputing.com ?

They have a $149 Palm-like device called the Agenda (what a coincidence!)
that actually runs on Linux.  But, the part you're more interested in is
that it has a standard serial port.

Only problem is they haven't shipped any units yet.  They are threatening to
ship any minute . . .

Dunno about the Sharp Wizards; there may not have been enough interest
for anyone to bother developing data communications tools for it.
It's far more "hit'n'miss" with these organizers that just didn't get
as popular as the PalmComputing lineup...

I have a Psion 5mx, 16 Meg RAM, 10 Meg ROM (various apps), .  Has a serial
port and comes with serial cable.  I transfer files using between the PDA
and my computer using y-modem.  Though small, but larger than a Palm it
has a useable keyboard and a 320x200 dispay.  Do a search in your Google
or your favorite search engine for Psion 5mx.  You might like it, but it is a
tad  pricey.
