I've been monitoring the wiki forum for quite some time now. I just
found a post mentioning that someone has built a telnet enabled
firmware for the HS-DLG - see 
http://linkstationwiki.org/forum/7_802_0.html and 
http://www.unet.univie.ac.at/~a0025690/
This is a build using vmlinux 2.6.15. There appears to be a more recent
version of vmlinux, namely 2.6.16 that can also be used to build the
same Telnet enabled firmware.

I guess all we need to do is wait for somone to install the Slimserver
on a HS-DLG using this firmware release. Btw, I just saw the new
HS-400DLG for $475.99 at buy.com.  Every where else is closer to
$500.00
