|=| Another big brand has discovered Linux for their PDAs. NOKIA
    announced a Linux-Powered Internet Tablet for the third
    quarter of 2005[1]. Nokia will even support Linux developers
    by selling 500 items for a 99$ each, and donate this
    income to the GNOME Foundation[2].

PS: Addicted to Linux and mobile computing since almost ten years, I often
    needed to investigate or repair laptop hardware. Sometimes I found it
    difficult to get necessary information, so finally I have started a new
    project:

    Repair4Laptop

    Need to achieve a hard disk or CPU upgrade of your laptop or notebook?
    Need to repair a broken display?  Want to dissect your laptop or
    notebook, to know what chips are actually inside your mobile computer?
    Are you missing a service manual?  Or just in the mood of modding or
    hacking your mobile gadget?  Here is a collection of links to take apart
    instructions, disassembly pictures or dismantling videos, upgrade and
    repair manuals, as well as do-it-yourself (DIY) tips and tricks for
    laptop and notebook repairs.  If you have written a repair report
    yourself, please send me a note.
