Yes, I found that and set off a torrent download of the Chinook VMware
scratchbox environment last night.  It had finished this morning but I
can't find where it put it :-/

My main goal is to be able to do regular reviews (reprioritization,
scheduling etc.) when roaming.  Hopefully org-mouse.el will help with
that.

Interesting!  Do you have any more details on the kind of extra support?

That sounds clever.  I have yet to find good docs explaining how the
mounting scheme works with the internal flash memory.

The N810 only has one external slot, but it does have a built-in 2GB
card.  I'd be pretty worried if emacs couldn't fit in that!  But I
don't know how to install to it rather than the internal memory.

Again, would be very interested to know how this works.
