"A project to port Linux to several smartphones manufactured by HTC of Taiwan and sold under various brand names was announced January 30 on the XDA-Developers project Website. The new "Xanadux" project aims to support GPRS and phone functions alongside Linux on the devices, and is seeking help from interested developers."
If a new effort hosted by the XDA-Developers web site has its way, Linux on devices currently running Microsoft's Windows Mobile platform may one day become reality. The web site, which caters to a large number of users of devices based on the HTC Wallaby and Himalaya models - perhaps better known as the O2 XDA and XDA II, or T-Mobile MDA and MDA II - has now offered up space for a product to port Linux to these devices, dubbed Xanadux.
Enter XDA Developers with their latest project - Xanadux. The grand goal: port Linux to the HTC Wallaby (aka XDA / MDA / SX-56 / QTek 1010). Their ideal: to produce a working base system with full GSM / GPRS functionality, and to make it relatively easy to install for anyone.
