I bought my J720 18 months ago as I needed a small ssh terminal so I could
look after a bunch of servers in London's Telehouse while I was away on
holiday in the Canary Islands. At the time, some progress had been made in
getting NetBSD to run on the J720 so it all looked quite promising. But
sadly it's still running WinCE along with Mochasoft's ssh/telnet client
and it's only ever used in emergencies; if it ran any kind of UNIX or
Linux, I'd use it an awful lot more!
