So this is FAR from the first place I would post this message... But I've been thinking... (Holy crap, I think!?) But this is the closest thing we've got to a right forum...

But I was thinking... You guys ever see one of these (http://www.pepper.com/products/pepper_pad3.html)? It's called a PepperPad. It's a full-out PC, but a handheld. And it runs on linux. Here's a couple links to see what it is...

So I was thinking... What would it take to get ALL the tools (and maybe a few other things) from BackTrack, and put it all on one of those...???

How well would it work?
Would it work at all?

I guess the only way to REALLY find out would be to get one and check it out I suppose...

I think it would be a REALLY swank thing to have... I think I'm going to do it.

So I guess before I fork out all that cash (and I really REALLY want to get a PepperPad anyways...lol... I just don't have the $$ for it right now :mad:) to buy one, I think I want to look into a few other things first...

So here are my questions...

To those of you who have experience with handhelds:Am I looking at a painful procedure? I mean really... I have an idea of the general process that needs to be gone through, but how difficult is the actual process itself?
To those of you who experience with Linux compiling/prgramming:Will there be a lot of re-coding needed for this whole process? I know it's a different platform/CPU, but does that have any serious effect on the code?
To those of you who have any kind of help/advice/websites/info that could be of help to me in this endevour:Lemme know. Like I said, I have pretty good of the general process that I will have to go through to accomplish this; the nitty-gritty details are beyond me. Anything helpful would be much appreciated...
To those of you who have no idea what I'm talking about:Please ignore this post. I know it's a bit late to mention this, but it was the only way to avoid any kind of flaming that I could think...
I'm going to check out a few other details myself. I have a few ideas on where I can help myself. So I'm going to see there and ask more questions here if I need to...

***EDIT***
Well... That was quick...

I guess all the info I *REALLY* need is there.

Any other help/pointers (like somehow putting myself in a position to get $$ to do this) would still be much appreciated though...
