I am now looking for an e830 and e570 especially, to allow me to support the entire Toshiba range. Working or broken, no matter. Any broken units are always a great help.

Why Donate?

I have been coding on linux for some time now, and have decided recently to spend some of my spare time porting linux to any PDAs I can get my hands on. As I own an e740 and e750, I have decided to start there, and the port is maturing fairly quickly, despite being based around the 2.6 kernel, which (until now) has been missing a lot of attention on the subsystems needed for PDAs to work well. I have helped clean up PCMCIA, and UDC support, and developed a new infrastructure for reporting battery status. I also have begun using the new SoC layer in hh.org kernels.

I am not rich, and as such I depend on donations in order to buy hardware and tools to use in this project. The e740 was bought for me by the good folks at Brighthand, for example.

Without your help I cannot keep up my work. All the donations are used for purchasing PDAs and equipment, and all my work is submitted to the public domain in a timely manner (including full sources)
