Haha ok will do, but still wondering where the best place to get full specs on most devices?

It was $5 and was in near perfect condition. I didn't have the Linux idea until I got home. It was just an ooo shiney moment( and cheap) that's really why I bought it lol.

What about this ?http://www.ehow.com/how_7496364_install-micro-sd-run-blackberry.html Has anyone tested to see if this will work?

I just got an old blackberry 9000 from a yard sell to tinker with and I was wondering how would I go about installing a linux distro( non graphical & maybe even kali would be nice) so that I can use it like a wifi pineapple. As far as sending commands to it and setting it up it would be nice to be able to do it through an ssh conncection, but my main question is which distro, and how to install it? If you don't know, I am also having a little difficulty finding the system specs (such as which ARM version and such) so if you can find good list of the specs I would greatly apreciate it. Also, if the binary based os's won't work would something like Gentoo be a possiblity (though I can't imagine how long it would take to compile on a cell phone ..... it took for ever on my ancient Mac Powerbook). Thanks :)
