No point in rushing out and buying one if that is the case... I was rather hoping that any company progressive enough to use Linux in some of their products would also have been progressive enough to recognize that there are systems other than Mac and Windows that people might want to connect to - especially as Unix support could presumably be provided with no extra effort and they would obviously have the in-house expertise.
I wouldn't expect any substantial change visible to 'dumb' users, but some form of Unix comatible file and network access would have been nice. Anyway, if anyone hears of anything like that, let me know.
