I was wondering if there's anything that even comes close to meeting the
following requirements:
(in rough order of importance)
0) runs NetBSD
1) handheld or at least smaller than 6"x6" and less than 3 lbs.
2) RS-232. USB with RS-232 adapter is acceptable.
3) optional external keyboard
4) built-in 10Mb/s Ethernet
5) built-in 802.11a/b/g
6) 8+ hour battery life with the ethernet turned off.
7) automobile DC charger and 110V AC charger
My goal is to have a device capable of telnet/ssh client, serial-console
and modem (minicom, etc..), e-mail, and even text-based web-browsing
that I can easily strap on to my motorcycle and carry from datacenter to
datacenter to wiring closet to wiring closet.
Thanks,
Mike.
