My attempts to obtain a C1000 at a price I can afford have fallen through ... so now I'm looking at a C760 or C860. Which of these is more usable in the real world with Cacko 1.23? I'll be using it for PIM, wireless surfing, ebook reading, comix reading, carrying family pictures, and watching movie clips. I can just afford a C860 from PriceJapan.
Also on those lines, how big a card would I need to flash Cacko 1.23 onto my "new" machine? I've got 32MB CF and a 64 MB SD. |

AFAIK, the 760 and 860 are identical. The colors are different, and the 860 came with some extra software in the box but that's it.
The 64 meg card is definately big enough for the Cacko installer. If you ever want to do a NAND backup or restore, you'll need a 256 meg or bigger CF card. |

Thanks, DrWowe; I guess it's just a matter of which is available for how much, then. I see C860s at PriceJapan for cheaper (including shipping) than the C760s at Conics.net. Of course I'll have to flash to Cacko myself, but big deal, I'd have to flash Conics' anyway.
Is there an English conversion available for the standard Japanese ROM on the 860, or should I just get ready to flash it once it gets here? Nemmine, I found Conics' English conversion guide.
