I think the 770/800 ARE pdas (in pocket pc form factor). A pda is a
pocketable (generally) computer. The term PDA could also apply to umpc
possibly.

From wikipedia...

Personal digital assistant
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_digital_assistant, an electronic
device which can include some of the functionality of a computer, /a
cellphone/, a music player and a camera

Also from wikipedia:

The *Ultra-Mobile PC* (abbreviated *UMPC*), previously known by its
codename *Project Origami*, is a specification for a small form factor
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Form_factor tablet PC
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tablet_PC.

I consider the PepperPad3 and Samung Q1 umpcs.

I generally categorize devices not by PIM/pda terms...but by their size
(pocket pc, umpc). I consider the blown out digital phones to be
merely pocket pc's but with cellular capability. The term smartphone
has been applied to this.

I see your point but to remember.  PDA originally referred to Personal 
Digital Assistant aka palm handsprings et al.  I'd not put the 770/n800 clan 
in that group myself. 

Then again PC originally meant Personal Computer not Windows Installed on 
x86

That's expensive software! Wonder if the customers know the cost of the

Nothing new, thats a part of my business. It works fine if you watch your
resources. Nobody take care of a guy with a pda (with kismet and aircrack
with some modifications) but always watch the legal aspects. Its not a game.
Pen. tests are not like wardriving where you look whats on Air around you.
Possible users from law enforcement may choice this device because its easy
to cover or could be place without viewable hint in form of cars with
peoples.

In my opinion (i wrote that in the past) the N770/N800 could be a powerful
weapon.

I think the bulk of that $3000 cost is that they provide support as well.
Bodies on the phone aren't cheap, and the work on the UI probably took some
time since that's what will really sell this device - making it easy for a
novice like me to use :)

However this does interest me and I'm thinking about what to put together.
First steps is probably to kismet + aircrack working

Believe they already are. They are listed on the maemo.org 2006 application
list wiki page. Haven't played much with them, but have them installed.

Aw: Re: [maemo-users] Nokia Internet Tablet as Pennnetration Testing Device

2007-02-08 Thread Mathias Uebelacker
Thats right on the lowest level you use kismet to scan the networks and save 
the informations like SSID, CHANNEL ENCRYPTION TYPE. Then collect datas on a 
defined SSID. After that you get a nice dump file on your mmc. Now use aircrack 
to find the key. Thats the reason why you need both progs. but this lower level 
works fine with WEP. After collecting datas for abaout 15 - 30 Min. Aircrack 
needs about 5- 15 sec. to get the key. I like the gps option of kismet to.

Mathias

PS Well i said it before but always watch the legal aspects. Play only with 
your own networks or take care..

As mentioned, kismet is there and already working. Aircrack appeared
to have had the same bug that was fixed in kismet. Does it still have
that bug, or has the fix propogated ?

gpsd is a useful tool in conjunction with kismet. For a useful pen
test tool, Nessus would be a rather interesting tool to port. Could be
too heavy though  the latest versions are closed source now.

Yup, I insstalled, those tools originally, but have not re-installeed since the 
last flash upgrade.  Those kind of tools would be great on a bootable flash 
card.  

Anyway, I have mixed feelings about the Pen Test device.  I think the price tag 
is high, but it sounds like they have put togeher a good product and if they 
provide good support as well, then people will definitely pay for convenience.  
I cannot off the top of my head think of its uses for law enforcement, but I am 
sure they exist. 

I do not agree with not making the device public.  I know that there are more 
dangerous devices in the wild, so making this modded 770 slightly difficult to 
obtain does not protect anyone.  

My last thought is that any security admin worht his or her salt should be able 
to put something like this together without too much trouble.  Where I see this 
company possibly making an interesting device is a version that is nearly the 
same but includes a dedicated processor for breaking encryption, like those old 
DES-busters a few years back.  That would be interesting.

Now I kind of want to see what I can put together on my 770 but I know i don't 
have the time.  Hmm, I guess that's where their market it, huh?  ;)
