Its the SL-5500 model. I paid about $350 for it, but am willing to part with it for $225. Anyone interested, send me an email. The original stylus is broke, but I'll throw in a 4-way stylus, pen, pencil, and red pen, that matches the color. The zaurus has the OpenZaurus firmware and Opie software on it. I will provide the original firmware if you like, and am willing to flash it for you. The zaurus works fine, btw. I just never use it. ;) pics: zaurus: http://img34.photobucket.com/albums/v102/red0x/dscf0001.jpg firmware booting: http://img34.photobucket.com/albums/v102/red0x/dscf0003.jpg r -- red0x From jfarkas at calpoly.edu Tue Mar 9 00:59:27 2004 From: jfarkas at calpoly.edu (Jacob Farkas) Date: Tue, 09 Mar 2004 00:59:27 -0800 Subject: [CPLUG Chatter] Zaurus for sale In-Reply-To: <1078822192.8490.18.camel@xpider> References: <1078822192.8490.18.camel@xpider> Message-ID: <404D876F.7010500@calpoly.edu> That 4-way stylus thingy doesn't involve duct tape, does it? red0x at users.sourceforge.net wrote: > I am planning on selling a zaurus pda.
