RE: [PLUG] linux pda recommendation

["Len Pikulski" <lenp@nothinbut.net>]

I just happen to have an SL5000 collecting dust.
I have to check, but I thing I have a WiFi adapter to go with it.
Let me know if you are interrested.

Thanks
Len

=============================

Look at the Sharp Zaurus 5000 or 5500.  The devices aren't sold by Sharp in
the US anymore, but you can buy them online & from eBay for less than $200.
Linux based with a lot of software and developer community behind them.
