Judging by the comments from the article, it seems that people in the stores selling the machines have been setting them up with blank root passwords, doing the customers a big favor. What else can you expect from retail electronics store employees?
I'm considering buying one of these but have a query the retailer cannot answer.This is supposed to be able to connect to 3G networks 'out of the box' but I don't believe the hype. I don't think there are many 3G drivers around for Linpus Lite. Does anyone have experience of connecting this to a 3G network and how?

I personally find it less adventurous to use a stable linux-based OS.
