Looks like the Nokia Communicator, but is a little PC with GSM, GPRS, IrDA, Bluetooth, WLAN -- you name it, running Linux 2.6/Qtopia! Sorry seems like the page is in German only." There are also versions based on the same hardware but running Windows CE and Symbian.

    To the user it probably has no advantages at all. You won't even notice it's Linux.

    To the manufacturer it's just the usual freedom/free beer thing.
