Seems to me there was a framebuffer-based VNC available way back for  
my old Zaurus SL-5500, don't know if it's been updated for the newer  
hardware but I'd guess it has been, even the older version *should*  
work.

Don't know about BT but WiFi should work. I really haven't played  
with my Z much lately, have no need for PDAs since I retired (or  
alarm clocks for that matter :-)).
