OpenBSD Up & Running on Sharp Zaurus

Eh-Wire writes "OpenBSD is now up and running on the Sharp Zaurus C3000. A photograph of the OpenBSD powered Zaurus shows it sitting beside another fine Western Canadian product that can boast an equal measure of integrity as that of the OpenBSD/Zaurus OS - Big Rock Beer! The world now has a fully capable ssh machine that fits in a shirt pocket. Good work guys!"

Who doesn't have a fully capable ssh client in their shirt pocket?

PuTTY works on Symbian S60 and S90 and QIC and PPC and lots of other things, as does Mochasoft.

ssh for blackberry is at http://www.needtext.net/shell/index.jsp

ssh for palmos is at http://www.sealiesoftware.com/pssh/

ssh for native Sharp Zaurus (i.e. without replacing the OS) is at http://www.killefiz.de/zaurus/showdetail.php?app=1 035

ssh for Pocket PC is at http://pocketputty.duxy.net/viewtopic.php?t=5

ssh for Symbol industrial handhelds is at http://www.pragmasys.com/HandHeld/industrial_pocke tvt_index.html

ssh for non-smartphones (i.e. regular phones that have a JVM) is at http://www.idokorro.com/imsshphone.html

I couldn't find ssh for the Newton, I admit. But that doesn't fit in a shirt pocket.

Did I miss anything? Anyone ported it to the ipod yet?

That's my 3000. The two devices to the left are a 40gb hard drive and a CD-Burner, both fully functional. The mouse and keyboard do belong to the Zaurus. These things make a fantastic laptop replacement. In fact, I no longer carry a PDA, Laptop, or MP3 player (because I have a wired music remote for the Zaurus).

Although I have to admit that I'm running linux - A beta version of the stock rom that has been rebuilt along the lines of this: http://www.cacko.biz/

And I should point out that SSH, both client and server, do work just fine under linux :)
