Just be warned that the OpenZaurus 3.3.6 distro, while a lot nicer than the original firmware is still very beta and you will have problems with the wireless and usb networking. By the way, I do have the source code for the correct usb networking driver for the usb cradle under linux. The one that the kernel has in 2.4 is not the correct one for zaurus, although 2.6 is supposed to work with it out of the box.
Also, what is the site that has the LDS stuff for Zaurus?
