    linux on a cell phone

    does anyone know if there exists a cell phone with:
    sms/mms
    cam (option)
    Wi-Fi (802.1 1b/g)
    AGPS
    Tri band 900/1800/1900 MHz
    Touch Screen

    that runs linux and works?

    I know about Neo freerunner, and the cost for that one is not that bad. It costs NOK 2.793 (516.46USD)

      So... maybe? I thought this was dead as far as Palm was concerned... but perhaps not.

          I don't know if you have time to wait, but the android based phones should be coming in the next few months no doubt with all the features you've listed, and they are linux based (actually I had to buy a new phone recently and have just got something cheap to hold me over to the new year when I will likely get one the android phones).

            Some people are already getting Android to run on existing HTC phones (the Touch)... not fully functional of course, but there is some limited hope that you can buy a Windows Mobile HTC phone and load Android on it... like marshallbanana said though, if you have time to wait (it could be 6 months at least just to find out it won't work 100%).
