Hello all,

Buy.com has about 700 HP Journada 720s available for $175 less $100 rebate, and I'm thinking about getting one...

First, the link:
http://www.buy.com/retail/product.asp?sku=70015949&adid=17654&dcaid=17654

If you google, say, Journada 720 linux" you'll see it is/was able to run Linux, and it appears that NetBSD is/was an option as well (at least as of 3.0 of NetBSD - http://www.netbsd.org/Ports/hpcarm/ ).

Anyone have any exp. with these devices? At $75, this enters the realm of "impulse buy" and with the ability for both PocketPC and NetBSD/Linux support for wired/wireless (WiFi) connectivity this could almost be useful...

Thoughts/exp.?
