Just a few corrections. The Imate PDA2K is actually a device called
HTC Blue Angel (Imate just rebranded it). It also known as Qtek in
Europe. So Blue Angel is not a linux distro, it's the generic name of
the device. Call it windows "whistler" :)
I don't know about linux running on the Jam, but I did have some
success with the first alpha built kernel on the pda2k. You can find
it here:

and here

You have to write the image to an sd card. Then it automagically
autoruns from inside windows ppc 2003 when you insert the sd card and
it will boot linux. Couldn't be easier.
What doesn't work though is the wireless network card or bluetooth. I
didn't even have proper battery monitoring.
The phone did work fine. I could make calls from my pda2k running linux :)
