I just had to give my .02 here. I have had an OQO (http://www.oqo.com)
since last february and other than wishing for a little more memory
(256M in v01) I find it an exceptional computer. With bluetooth, 802.11,
firewire, usb (only 1.1 but you have firewire) and a 20Gig drive all in
the size of a PDA it is an excellent testing tool.
I have not had any luck with kismet or netstumbler (yes I have dual
boot, 10gig debian, 10gig winxppro) but just plug in my usb linksys wifi
card and it works great. I have 2 batteries so I can get about 4-5 hours
between charges which is good enough for most testing needs, and then
when I get back to my desk I just plug in and goto analysis since it is
also my desktop (once docked I'm at 1280x1024 on my 17" lcd with my
firewire 160G drive & dvd burner).
I couldn't ask for a better machine, and they are only getting better!
