Have to manually install, WEP doesn't work. Low power
usage. You have to reflash the ROMs with a kernel that
has wireless extensions enabled, install the iwconfig package, and
write a bash script to set all the WEP parameters. In other words,
it's not trivial, but it is straightforward if you have a good roadmap.
You can refer people to http://www.cypherpunks.ca/zaurus/socket.html which can provide a good staring point. (Or just install Open Zaurus)

Doesn't block ports for the most part. Does block
stylus port, but plastic stylus can bend a little bit to get out. Some versions
don't work with the Zaurus ROM less then 1.12
