I find the current organization of USB + installing applications in one section and WLAN + GPRS + other things in a catch-all section unintuitive. What do others think of grouping USB, WLAN, and GPRS under one section about connectivity, followed by a section on updating, then a section on installing other apps (with non-project-name subheads for each task, e.g., "web browser" rather than "minimo") and then a next steps section for remaining items? --[[User:Joejarvis|Joseph M.

The impatient user (me) will try to boot right after plugging the phone for charging. If this is not possible, the text should be explicit.
TODO: redirect getting_started and Getting_started here
I would expect to find instructions here on how to secure the box, at least set up a password for root.
Organization of connectivity, update, & application sections
I find the current organization of USB + installing applications in one section and WLAN + GPRS + other things in a catch-all section unintuitive. What do others think of grouping USB, WLAN, and GPRS under one section about connectivity, followed by a section on updating, then a section on installing other apps (with non-project-name subheads for each task, e.g., "web browser" rather than "minimo") and then a next steps section for remaining items? --Joseph M.

Upgrade through ssh:
I think it's easier to upgrade everything through ssh... first run this:
# nohup opkg upgrade dropbear
then run this:
# opkg upgrade
