I second the "eyes on the Nokia770." Not exactly a PDA, but if you are more concerned with the "hack around with" than the calendar, I think it would be better than a zaurus. On the otherhand, it doesn't have a keyboard, so it would have limited use as an SSH client (though you could use a bluetooth keyboard with it...) mmm Nokia 770

I used a Zaurus SL5500 and loved it. The 5500, 5600, and 6000 can be found for cheap on ebay. Easy to hack and "fool around with". Now I have my eye on the Nokia770.
