You can install additional software, check out http://littlelinuxlaptop.com/software.htm
They also have two alternative distributions, featuring Firefox 3 and additional software.
Unfortunately there is still a cache bug within the 2.6 kernel with the Jz4730, I hope they will be resolved soon, so we can get suspend working =)

For anyone interested take a look at the trendtac hyve we have started
http://trendtac.hyves.nl
By installing a simple patch/info file you have a fully functional xterm on the Trendtac and thereby full root access.

Getting root is actually very easy, as described here:

Won’t work, /usr/sbin/telnetd is not running.

There is a trick to get it running, by making it the external command in the pdf viewer (instead of firefox), then clicking on a link in a pdf file.

Disclaimer: I haven’t tried this as I don’t have the hardware.

You may be able to start a terminal shell from Firefox, by using a URL like “telnet://”. This has worked on other Linux boxes with no obvious access to the command shell.

And why is an alpha version of FF2 included? I mean seriously? I wouldn’t be surprised at FF3 RC1 or FF Beta5, seeing as how mozilla recommends those over the release version of FF2. What the heck?
