Re: [PLUG] Zaurus Linux PDA now at Staples
|
Mossberg does have a good point though, even though it is bias. When
looking at it from a business perspective for Sharp. It does need to fit in
the Windows world. Most people utilize microsoft products on the desktop
and for Sharp to have a good product it needs to be compatable. As for me,
I could care less, I have wanted one since I played with them at Linuxworld.
I sync to my phone, which is good enough for me.
