Do any of you know Linux based PDA's that are available today (no prototypes).
The only one I know is the zaurus (difficult to get) and softfield is still selling agendacomputing's VR3.

As I said in anther thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=33285, my wife and I are opening a shop/webshop with gifts and gadgets. I would like to sell not to expensive PDA's, based on Linux.

Thanks.

I contacted some of those companies, unfortunately, most of them are either prototypes or discontinued. Only the VR3 and the Zaurus are currently available, I think the VR3 is on life-support though.

Yes, it is. Unfortunatly, it is more in the high-end price range.
For our store, the VR3 price is great. It undercuts the price of other basic PDA's like the palm Zire.
