i have a zaurus, running openzaurus, but it seems to be rather unstable. maybe i'll reflash it when i get a chance...
while a dashboard program for the zaurus would be cool, i don't think it'd be functional. a laptop screen is much larger, and much nicer to read off of, and more impressive to judges. On the other hand, you can't walk around with a laptop in one hand, and a screwdriver (or other tool) in the other, poking the robot to find the problem.
i guess the bottom line is, if someone is willing to explain the basics of programming for a zaurus, i'm more than willing to help make a cool dashboard for it.
oh, btw, they do make battery packs, that hold like 4 AA batteries and plug into the I/O port. not sure how long they last though.
