I have:

Become root. (for various reasons)

kbdd (serial bluetooth keyboard driver): to work with the Freedom keyboard. I did some scripts so that it is started from the menus. By the way, you need to use the "smartbt" profile, and it was a real pain finding this out.

FBreader: I am going to try Ebook reading. I have no experience of this, will see how it goes.

Nethack: I allways load Nethack on any device I can - simply the best computer game ever. I miss text mode though.

oggplay: why pay Fraunhoffer?

xterm: for editing configuration scripts and moving items around the menus.

tnftp: for getting stuff when I have no USB cable.

vim: god I hate modal editors, when can we get a GUI text editor which can see all the filesystem, or even a filesystem manager which can see all the filesystem? :s/hate/really hate/p

vncviewer: Because it is the only way to do stuff on my server.

Hardware:
1Gb RS-MMC card (san disk because it was the cheapest)

Bluetooth keyboard. Freedom Bluetooth one (again because it was the cheapest, with hindsight, you should get a Kb which supports the Kb HID profile.

I tried the nfs mount hack, but this ran way too slow, so I am now using the Slimserver thing for music access, but it is still not good. We need a better mechanism for streaming content off windows servers.

Hope this helps
