Linux aviation software esp. GPS navigation?

I'm very, very tempted by the Sharp's Zaurus PDA.

It uses an embedded version of Linux 2.4, has a built in QWERTY keyboard, CF & SD slots 64Mb RAM & a touch sensitive colour screen.

Anyone know of aviation software for Linux? Particularly GPS mapping items.

If I decide to get it, it will be to use with a GPS in which case I'd like to replicate some or all of the abilities of the Pocket PC software Anywhere Map

Of course I might buy it anyway. Only US$398 (~GBP270!) at amazon.com.
