but I miss my zaurus more
one of my biggest computer-touching regrets is that I didn't ever get a chance to run obsd's zaurus port in its heyday

Somehow Google still supports TLS 1.0, so you can use Gmail and Google search in the Pre's browser. Pretty much nothing else works natively, but someone developed a workaround by porting a squid proxy instance to MITM TLS 2.0 connections, which kinda works in a pinch, but you're still dealing with a 10 year old browser which doesn't fare that well with a lot of web pages.

The other challenges are the 2G/3G shutdowns and just the number of parts of society that now expect you to have an Android or iOS phone to interact with them.
