Introduction
TIM or Alice Mobile IDOL (Internet Device on Linux) is a MID (Mobile Internet Device) that was once produced back in 2007 - 2009 (rough time frame, not confirmed). IDOL is among one of the many OEM varients of the Compal Jax10. Most of the varients have the following spec:

The following is a (maybe incomplete) list of the models produced:
- Aigo P8860

- SDFR M! PC Pocket (HSDPA 3G, French version)
- Itelco TIM Alice Mobile IDOL (HSDPA 3G, Italian version)
Many of the version comes with Linux pre-installed. However the hardware is capable of running Windows XP. This blog post is about installing Windows XP on to the Alice Mobile / TIM variant. Maybe also applies to Windows 7 or other Windows version as well.
I know this is probably 10 years too late, but if anyone happens to have this machine, hopefully this could be helpful.
