[SGVLUG] Nokia Linux devices at CompUSA...

[Stan Slonkosky]

CompUSA has increased the discounts on some products as they prepare
to close most of their stores in California (including all of them
south of Bakersfield and Santa Barbara/Goleta).

The Nokia Internet Tablets (which have Linux as the OS) are now going
for 30% of the regular price making the N770 $245 and the N800 $280.
There were at least three of the N770's and two N800's left (before I
bought one of them) in one of the display cases in the cell phone
section of the Monrovia store when I was there this evening.

http://blogs.zdnet.com/security/?p=19 tells about a modified N770 that
runs a customized installation of Debian/Linux running kernel 2.6.16"
and sells for $2400

http://blogs.zdnet.com/security/?p=54&tag=nl.e539 has an article about
"Hacking with Metasploit on the N800."
