Hardware Modding
1. Has anyone taken their Wizard apart or modded it in any physical way?
2. How would you even start taking it apart?
3. Assuming you could get to any component you needed, what's the feasibility of changing things like the processor, wifi chipset etc?
Software Modding
1. Anyone put Linux on their Wizard and had it running correctly with all previous functionality?
2. Anyone know of any current development on a Linux version of the Wizard software?
3. Would an older version of the Win Mob OS work on it? i.e. with Windows Moble 2003 there have been a LOT of softwares created, whereas Mobile 5 is too new for cool stuff.
4. If you stripped it down would you be able to find out interesting things like the manufacturer and model of different components etc?
5. Any specific recommendations for a UK T-Mobile based device? i.e. can the rom be flashed without losing all the required functionality?
UK Stuff
1. Anyone managed to get some wifi sniffing software running on the Wizard? I know most of it's built for Linux but there are a few good Windows versions out there.
2. Are there many free wifi access points around? I've looked at some warchalking stuff and it seems like there is but a specific list of areas doesn't give you an overview on how available it is.
