Sounds like a Linux nerd's dream phone:

Have any of you with the Palm Pre phone messed around on the linux 
console yet? I've heard that you can do things like just set up a 
network route between the cell phone wireless interface, and the wifi 
chip or USB networking to create an AP, or tether your laptop.

p.s. I read the linked article the other night... you can skip the first 
several paragraphs. That guy is not my favorite tech writer.
