[more info]

Connectivity

GSM/GPRS

Quad-band Telit GE864 module

WiFi

802.11b with a Philips chipset
Not yet supported by Linux (planned for December)

Bluetooth

GPS

Navman Jupiter32, with NMEA output

Battery

Li-Ion, charged over USB

Peripheral connectivity

SD socket, with SDIO capability

USB

USB 1.1, with host and slave capabilities

Serial port

RS232, 16550 compatible

GPIO

up to 16 dedicated lines, shared with keypad (if present)

Availability

Compulab has a strict sales policy: only to companies, only in large quantities, only if one evaluation board is bought

To make this device available for the open source developer community, there is an idea for a group purchase organized by the [Handheld Linux Shop] which would come to approx. 649 EUR (incl. VAT) / 750 US$ (excl. Tax) if 100 units are reached (20% less if 500 units). Contact: mailto:sales@handheld-linux.com
