I'll have to recompile it for x64 then... I'll only really miss the
backlight setting (related to battery life), and maybe the CPU power
management (battery life too). I use it as a tiny laptop, usually with
ethernet... Maybe my Android phone can also be used as an USB-to-wifi
bridge (USB-to-3G is probably OK too; didn't test yet).

Thanks all for your work !
