Going Online with the Zaurus SL-C3000 Linux PDA

Feb 8 2005, 5:25am EST | by Luigi Lugmayr

Sharp announced their latest Linux PDA, the Zaurus SL-C3000, in October for the Japanese market. The new Zaurus is the first PDA with an integrated 4GB hard-drive. It is now in stores in Japan. I published my first impressions of the Zaurus SL-C3000 a while ago. This report is describing my experience with this Linux PDA going online and surfing the web.

Quote:
"I am on the look out since a long time for the idea device to access the web anywhere I am. So I was excited to finally get my Zaurus SL-C3000 online to see if it fulfills my needs. The Zaurus SL-C3000 does not have built-in Wi-fi, so I had to first buy a CF-Slot Wi-fi card. No built-in wi-fi is really a drawback as the card sticks out of the otherwise super stylish gadget."
Read the full report and see the screen-shots.

The Japanese release Zaurus SL-C3000 sells for $819.00 at Dynamsim. Dynamism ships the Zaurus SL-C3000 configured for English.
