What are the software running on your linux embedded pda? How do you rate Familiar Or Opie? What do you use for notes, calendar, internet/email, back-up, games(especially emulators), sync to pc(any OS), music(playing ogg, synthesizing wav,maybe)? And maybe post a PNG of you today screen.

I run Open Zaurus (OZ), well on my Zaurus.

PIM: Opie-based
MP3: madplay (command line)
Browser: Opera
Sync/PC connectivity: Linksys WCF12 wireless card

I'll get a screenshot soon. (there are a lot on the OZ site.)

for those with an Ipaq, check out the familiar project

For those without an Ipaq, get a Zaurus. It comes with Linux.
