Well, I'm the zaurus 'somebody'. You're welcome to the kernel source, and I can provide some help with getting it going. For my purposes, performance is pretty sprightly. I still use it for writing or reviewing the odd bit of code or text editing. Yes, viewing pdf's is slow but I assume that is because of the floating point emulation.
The kernel boots from the flash in place of the linux one. I formatted the internal microdrive with kfs. Wifi with wep works ok on a cf card. Sound playback works (the internal speaker is pretty poor!). Cache coherence problems defeated me on the usb drivers, but I very nearly finished a driver for the sdcard, and got some way with a flash driver, which would have been useful to update the kernel from within plan9. It is all based on the bitsy code, so is probably some way out of line with the current arm developments. -rod
