The iPAQ rx1955 isn't even fully supported by Linux yet.

I'm currently working on adding support for the iPAQ 3900 to
hpcarm. This is only slightly newer, but the main part of the work has
been to allow multiple processor types to be referenced from
files.hpcarm and to restructure hpcboot a bit.

I was able to find several of the old models on eBay.

The earlier devices have the benefit of allowing PCMCIA and CF devices
to be used in the add-on sleeves.

To go back to the original question, another developer was working on
a SL-C3000 port.
