Hi, I have the Zaurus SL-5500. The mail client provided by Sharp was not terribly good, especially for IMAP. I have installed a DLink CF wireless adapter that works very well. Battery life is not bad, but the battery does still drain in standby mode. I have now installed OpenZaurus (opie) and that's much better than the original installation - including the email client. Haven't got konqueror working yet - there seems to be a problem with the KDEDIR environment variable, but shouldn't be too hard to fix. Stuart. On Wednesday 29 June 2005 10:00, Darren wrote:

Im off to Spain in a few weeks and will be taking the laptop + Mobile to stay connected etc..

But I was looking at various Sharp Zaurus's to take and use when I don't want to have the laptop with me.

Does anyone have one who can say ya or na to using one?

Thanks Darren
