Ask Slashdot: Handheld Linux, Today?

Jesse Montrose asks: "I'd like to find out what others are doing about the urge to carry Linux around. I currenly live in Linux on a Thinkpad 560, but it's something of a commitment to bring along with me. Linux on a Psion series5 is exciting, and I'll keep an eye on their progress, a 340MB CFFlash would hold a nice text-only distribution. The various mini-laptops are also interesting, if weak on battery life (ie the Libretto, IBM's PC110, and the sexy new VAIO PCG-C1 which is due in the US around March 15). There are a lot of active projects, but is anyone using a handheld Linux solution right now that they recommend?" nthomas isn't so picky. All he wants is a "handheld...in the $500-$1300 range". What say you all?
