Hi folks;

I'm considering purchasing an NEC MobilePro 880, but wanted to find out
if other people were having good or bad luck trying to do what I wanted
to do with it. I'm not afraid to try to coax the distribution onto a
flash card etc.

How is the XServer coming along? Can I run reasonably complex apps
under it (mMosaic, gimp, etc)?

Has anyone tried to build Perl on it?

I've already read that PCMCIA cards work great, so I won't even ask ;)
(Hope to use modem, ne200, scsi).

Does audio work (exa, mp3 listening)?

Suspend would be nice but isn't strictly required. Has this been
added yet?

USB supported?

Thanks in advance -
cheers!
