Yeah, I’m quite quiet these days.  Been to Shanghai for the EXPO and Peking for a short vacation.  Besides, I’d keep in touch with my gf (girl friend, not Gong Fei).  So I’ve little time to Z-turn….Anyway, I found some great guys on xda have updated a new port about Ubuntu 9.04 for RAPHAEL.  I’ve tried and found some amazing things desired for quite a long time:

3G is activated

Just do as that thread said, the first 2 dialog boxes can be left blank and the third one can be filled with "3gnet"(others like cmnet may also be ok but I’ve never tried).  As to the fourth one–the DNS, what I entered is 8.8.8.8, the public DNS owned by Google Inc. so I think there’s no need to check if China Unicom had a DNS server for their cellphone users.

SMS and telephone calls are available

That’s what amazed me most.  I’ve never dreamed I can make telephone calls and send&receive SMSs via Ubuntu on a windows mobile device, but it happened.  Unfortunately, I have no camera and I didn’t find the apt-get tool so I cannot capture screenshots.  Guys who have interest can try by yourselves.

Problems found till now:

• No Chinese support
• Not chargeable via USB
