Hello

I'm new to the list so I'm sorry if this has been asked a zillion times before.

I'm looking for an entry level ipaq to test out the two distributions
but do not know which one to get. I can get a 3970 quite cheep, but
wonder if it is too low end. (I can do without microphone and ir which
seems to be missing)

What I want to do is to
- surf the web through my telephone (Nokia E50) and possibly through WLAN.
 - Connect to my home network through ssh
- Connect to my nokia GPS unit through GPSdrive
- Play some music and watch movies
- Synchronize with google calendar (is it possible?)

Any models that are bettered suited than the 3970?
Are there significant differences between units sold in the US
compared to Europe?

thanks
Johnny
