[wplug] Zaurus SOLUTIONS found

[Robert E. Coutch]

I've only done upgrades (ROM updates) using a CF card.  Never tried it with an 
SD card.

I haven't found any Linux based software to sync with but there is a Windows 
version available.

I haven't checked in a while so it's possible there is a Linux based sync 
solution out there.
I heard tale of a possible evolution plug in.
