It has wifi and bluetooth, and although it can't replace your phone, it can connect to one with bluetooth to get on the internet. It's actually designed to run linux, and is very hackable, with lots of familiar linux apps available for it, like xterm, irssi, and supertux. As well as that, the latest OS version allows you to connect to Google Talk and use it for VoIP. http://maemo.org/ is the place to go for screenshots and packages for it. Oh, and it has a massive 4.1 inch 800x480 screen. Perfect for web browsing. -- 140cf42384f90b8c349b67457b907115 Public PGP key at http://www.jameshallam.info/files/publicpgpkey.txt
