Hi, all... thanks for all the input on embedded devices. I finally got busy and did a 5-wire hack on my 2nd and only remaining ZipIt (the first hacked one died...
Thanks to everyone for replying. :-) I already have a PocketPC, but no built-in keyboard... actually what ZipItPet said at the end as really struck to the...
How about a Psion 5mx or 3 series. Openmoko looks like it could be good with GSM, GPS, touch screen and linux. $350 I think which is still pretty good. If...
... Well, actually I was wondering about "from scratch", but I realize that's near folly (if not folly already!). So I suppose the next logical step would be...
I am an amateur and need some help. I am getting this error when buildroot is compiling the kernal. Can any one help. " /bin/sh: scripts/mkdep: Argument list...
You mention that there are loads of linux based devices out there. I have been looking a linuxdevices.com , but their list does not seem to be comprehensive....
... Let me clarify. There have been many. Unfortunately they come and go very quickly. Some only make it as a press release (and are never released and/or only...
... The 5mx not a linux device. No Psion devices of that age are Linux based. They all run an early version of Symbian (or possibly a predecessor, not really...
I got busybox v1.0 running on my zipit but now I want to get some applications running, particulary a gui browser. could anyone point me in the right direction...
I just bought a zipit off ebay. It's updated so the old zrs trick doesn't work and I'd much rather do some software flash than crack open the case and start...
Well, the update makes it so from now on, updates are done over SSL. Thusly you can't trick the zipit into downloading from a false server. ... -- Eric Merz ...
You know, that makes me wonder --- has anyone tried? They may not actually validate the server certificate. Or they may validate the hostname but not the...
Well, that news is a bit discouraging but it still hasn't been declared impossible. brianb, if you could post those links I'd really appreciate it. Since...
Well, that's a convincing enough explanation for why it's just wire- modding from now on. brianb, could you post those links if you have them handy? I'd still...
The problem is that pictures don't make things easy to understand. They won't be clear, since you're soldering to a chip as well, unless you're using a...
... Despite the company's unfortunate cave-in to censorship in places like China and their abandonment of the 'don't be evil' philosophy, Google is your friend...
Thanks for the replies but I can't say that the addon board is helpful. When I got my zipit I wanted it to be a cheap little project so I can't justify...
... I don't have the links, I remember it all from a wifi project about a year and a half ago. It's an attack known as the "evil twin attack" and I don't think...
... A number of us have 'posted' pictures of the modifications; I subtly suggested visiting my site in my last reply (the 3rd Google hit). Here is the actual...
Thanks a lot. I feel pretty dumb now as I've visited your site a few times looking for pictures on the page that they were on... Honestly, the picture of the...
A quick google search gave me all the information I needed. The basic steps for doing that attack are: 1. Create access point with same name as target 2. Host...
Not to mention that impersonating their key.. isn't that a little.. well.. illegal? ... -- Eric Merz Ceralor Entąrę Not to mention that impersonating their...
I can't see how creating an SSL key using the Zipit hostname with your own signing authority would be illegal, in the privacy of your own home, with your own...
If someone can manage to get that hack done, I'd be very happy!! I've had no luck with soldering, nor using MAX233A or any other 232 chip. Apparently my skills...
