Tim,
Unfortunately, the URL you give for Itsy Linux info has restricted access.
I can't open it. Seems to me when I was talking to one of the Itsy team
members last summer, he said they were going to restrict access because of
the flood of interest they had received (but I did enjoy watching an MPEG-3
movie play on his Itsy. Too bad the poor contrast/slow response on the LCD
made it look like a gray blur :-)

It does indeed; while I was doing the port, one of the Itsy team made a
nice little library to make a simple connection to the frame buffer,
touchscreen, buttons etc, including the transfer-Display-to-frambuffer
routine. The whole Itsy linux source is available somewhere on the Itsy
site at http://www.research.digital.com/wrl/itsy/linux or thereabouts.
