Even with a bigger capacitor soldered in, booting without battery was 
not reliable on my gta02.  I used a tiny lipo battery from a toy 
helicopter and twisted leads around the battery connector.

Here are some pictures of my gta02 hard at work being a remote 
pulseaudio sink so I can play music over wifi to my stereo:

Currently software is the problem with this project.  I spent a long 
time hacking an SHR install to boot without X, but with wifi and 
pulseaudio.  Sometime I will try a distro that still uses initd.  I 
started to read about hackable1 then got distracted.
