the motorola Scalpl (i think that's how it's spelt) runs by default some linux-based os. their e680 series does too. this definitely made me more interested in motorola products.

I honestly will probably only buy/use motorola products when it comes to cell phones

all the new motorola non-smartphones run on linux. most of the smartphones do too, but they're intended for asian markets as thats where they sell best.
its just a shame that the guy who heads the linux implementation is a java fanatic...hence JUIX. he truely believes that the future of appications is to be java based rather than running native linux apps. thats why linux on moto smartphones are so difficult to hack.
