I popped it open... alas, no pads available for the serial port hack. I
just tried downgrading the firmware for my version (version 4) to see if
that improves reliability. Lots of gripes about this version here and
there on the net.

No information about whether I could load Linux on it. Were I more of a
hacker I'd mount the firmware releases via loopback and poke around, but
so far I haven't figured out how to do it.
