Xiangfu is working on getting the "man" command included in future releases but
if you want "man" on your NanoNote right now then this could help:

  
http://downloads.qi-hardware.com/people/unclouded/man-tiny_20110518-1_xburst.ipk

It depends on the "mandoc" package, which is part of the latest standard
release and which does all the heavy lifting.  MD5 for the .ipk is:

  7edf0bc773132b5c8b88594e68eeab61

The source is at:

  http://projects.qi-hardware.com/index.php/p/man-tiny/source/tree/master/

..and it can be rebuilt from openwrt-packages ( package: man-tiny found under
Utilities).

It's very primitive ( 91 LOC) because all it does is find the man page and give
it to mandoc and less but it supports a MANPATH with multiple elements, i.e:

  MANPATH=/usr/man:/usr/share/man  man  time

..which I couldn't get the busybox version of "man" to do.

Note: No man pages are included at the moment.  You can get man pages for Linux
system calls by installing the .deb archive mentioned in an earlier post and
man pages for the SDL API by installing:

  
http://downloads.qi-hardware.com/people/unclouded/libsdl-dev_1.2.14-1_xburst.ipk

..but there are not yet man pages for the commands included in the standard
release image.

What's the best way to collect and package man pages for the other commands?
