I'm slowly converting my computers to linux, my wife generally doesn't care as long as she's able to do all the same stuff she can do in windows. One oppertunity I'm seeing to assume linux is in our cellphones.
Our contract with Cingular is expiring soon, and we've considered getting Smartphones so we don't have to carry a PDA and Cellphone seperatly. She has been looking lately and the new Treo caught her eye, it happens to run on mobile windows. I don't know much about what's out there right now, but I was wondering if anyone knows about Smartphones that run Linux out there. I'm sure it'd make the transition to linux easier if the OS on the phone was from the same family as the OS on the computer it syncs with.
