All of these features are supported under WinCE, and as far as I know no
one has Linux running on the 820.

Without considerable reverse engineering, I doubt anyone will get Linux on
the 720.

Need to know the flash parts, SDRAM hook up and timing values(might be
able to derive these or use a WinCE program to dump the registers), and
how to use and operate any other hardware that is non-standard(of which
there seems to be plenty).

If anyone has a few to donate, I'll be willing to throw some time at it
=).
