Looks like this is just getting started but I like it. Why? It gets away from that narrow-focus handheld model which I mostly dislike. If I buy a computer, even if it's an iPod, I want to use that computer and take advantage of what I've got.
Very early on, it was noted that the operating system on the iPod could support lots of different kinds of things. But, we've been given dribs and drabs of functionality - slowly from my point of view.
So, I like this linux on your iPod thing. The screenshot shows Podzilla's version of Linux running on an iPod. Lots of games run. It supports several graphic formats. Can't play AAC-encoded music very well. Oh, and it's dual boot so you can keep running the iPod OS as before. Cool!
