Geeks.com is selling the HP iPAQ h2210 for less than $220 this week, with a... 3600 mAh extra battery and a 128 MB SD card. While this model is pretty old now it is still very capable with its 400 Mhz processor and so we thought that we could review it from the point of view of an affordable SIP phone (Ekiga, Gizmo, Stanaphone, FreeWorldDialup, Skype). Read more for our findings and a quick rundown of its amazing battery life times!

First of all, Windows works well on this device.
Regarding Linux, there is an h22xx port going on AS WE SPEAK. Check the mailing list here: http://www.handhelds.org/hypermail/h2200-port/current/
However, the specific model doesn't work well yet, but I expect it to do so by the time Familiar Linux 0.8.3 gets released in a few weeks.

Just curious, since I don't keep up with the Linux on PDA efforts... How friendly is this device to installing something besides Winders on it?
The price seems right...
