Review of YOPY YP-3700 Linux PDA

Andrew Baxter writes "Ian Giblin is a senior contributing editor to bargainPDA.com for all things Linux. In his latest review Ian brings an in depth look at the YOPY YP-3700 from G.Mate, Ian informs us that "this device is geeky, and I mean Battlestar Galactica geeky" and that it is "undoubtedly the most linuxy handheld device I've seen. It out-linuxes the Sharp Zaurus range." Read on for many pictures, device specs and in depth information on this Linux PDA device now available in the U.S. and also South Korea."

undoubtedly the most linuxy handheld device...

Is that code for non-intuitive, hard to use for first timers, full of superflouous and badly labelled options, and a sparse, out of date manual written by someone who barely speaks english?

When I hear "this is more linuxy", that's what I think of. I mean, is slackware not more "linuxy" than lindows or redhat?

For the record, I use slackware, but I can't see the desire for an aggravating PDA. The main reason to buy one is as an orginizational tool to make one more productive.

It would make sense to have a 'non-whoring' button so you can still post with accountability (and a starting score of +1 or +2) but not accumulate extra karma from being modded up. Not that I would ever use such a button myself.
