I guess most interesting peripherals are not supported.

Booting NetBSD has the same effect as doing hard reset.  Your Windows
Mobile (in the flash) will not be lost, but all data and installed
programs will be lost.  Make a full backup before trying to boot
NetBSD.  Afterwards you will get back your WM at factory settings and
you can restore your data and programs from the backup.
