If a NAS is hard to hack, then this device will even be harder. I guess  
the base system isn't that differen - both are running some kind of linux.  
But while a NAS suffers from the same low spec cpu and memory as the  
Nokia, they at least can handle disks. I'm not sure the Nokia has anything  
like Samba or NFS installed by default.

But please don't think installing slimserver on a PDA or web tablet is  
easier than on a NAS...

I'm a long time Zaurus owner. I've been playing with the idea of  
installing SlimServer on it just for the fun of it. But the installation  
package needed (Perl + slimserver) alone would fill some 50MB of memory.  
It's just not worth the effort.
