Yes. Unless, of course, you decide to go with the Nokia 770, which I think is
worth exploring. Palm are currently in the process of moving to the Linux
kernel, whereas Nokia have completed this transition. They have Maemo, which
is an O/S/wrapper based on Debian, with GTK applications on top, as well as
Opera and other free goodies. Very slick, stable, but some say that the unit
is still underpowered. Have a look at some reviews, but be very selective
and fully aware of whose word you should take.
