iPhone looks promising for Linux

Filed under: Debian — iMac at 5:16 pm on Tuesday, January 9, 2007

I hope to find myself running Debian on one of these someday soon.  I have yet to see the hardware specs, however today I know of no other OS X capable device that does not run Linux well.  My fingers are crossed as I wait to see what the first ones look like on the inside.  Running a VOIP client on the Toronto Wifi network could certainly be one way to claw back at the increasing incremental cost of mobile phone technology.  Stretch your imagination to include a V4L device, a vlc server and client, a vpn client running on another small device, and voila, the home theatre goes mobile.  Native OSX could probably handle this just fine also - Just no fancy package management. iPhone
