I have one and an half N900, but it's too old hard/soft/ware for me. I'm currently on a J1.

I'm not sure a 8 year old distribution is very insterresting if you want to start computer security. There are linux and android distributions more modern for this.

Maemo Leste would be dank AF on the Pro1, especially if they port or reverse engineer osso-notes!

@shaihkritzer: I read the signature but it did not mention any other than N900, even though it was dead. Thought you may have purchased another one. Have to check N93i. Not familiar with that.

There would now be one Psion Revo Plus for 35€ which I have thought. Cheaper than Gemini PDA but would look the same. My friend has also praised Nokia 9500 communicator to be awesome.

I can confirm for bootloader, instead of "unlockable", it's "unlocked" with factory state, so there is no need to manually unlock it. In theory you don't even need to boot into Android, just press vol - and power key to get to bootloader and do whatever you like.

I am working with team to upload restore firmware and tutorial for getting into bootloader etc...

EDIT : yeah !! it looks like the posting toy will come here agin ! He will continue his unique purpose of distracting us (I hope he has understood that once we will have our Pro1, he will given to a poor child without toys). I should have taken a screenshot of his last post, it was priceless

Thank you for this info, this is great!

Does anyone know if dualboot with Android + something else is possible ?

A similar system to partitions as Planet Computers has for the Gemini, full gui with easy OS selection and disk resizing would be amazing, but any option id take

It is theoretically possible but is not something that has been implemented so far. There are two main issues:

1. It will require repartition of the device. Android encrypts the largest partition known as userdata, so it can not be used to store the alternative OS and a separate partition needs to be created like it was done on Gemini PDA.
2. Bootloader modifications to provide minimal boot menu and ability to boot from alternate boot partition (at least for dual-boot).
