Zipit Z2 Wireless Instant Messenger Preview

Back


The Zipit Instant Messenger is an Open-Source embedded Linux platform designed to be a wifi enabled multi client device. The original Zipit Z1 was opened up and examined by Linux hackers alike, and more functions were added as time went on. Typical teenage IM chatter wasnt all the little device could do anymore. E-Mail, IRC, ICQ, MSN, AIM, Y!, Secure Shell, Wifi scanning, and much more. Look at http://www.openzipit.org/Development/OpenZipit/ for more information on the potential of the Z1. The new Z2 IM client is the next generation of Zipit. With full color screen, native SD card, and Linux 2.6 kernel, and the helpful open-source support from the ZipIt developers, only time can tell what new features the new Z2 will have. Natively the ZipIt Z2 will allow homebrew and future applications to natively run from its SD card. With a color screen, more CPU power, more RAM, and much improved keyboard, this is a device well worth keeping an eye on. Weather its just for simple movies, music, IM and e-mail or for a embedded linux platform, the ZipIt 1 and 2 are quite fun and innovative toys for both teens and techs.
