UDV!
I know you're out there in Budapest, teeming with Zaurii, and loving them. Let's get the Z party started, "magyar" style!!

(ok, maybe I'm a bit too enthisiastic.. :wink: )

Maybe Heard of any retailers selling the C7xx or C860 in Hungary?

Actually, no. I walked into the Sharp store across from Westend in Budapest, and they said they tried the 5000d in Hungary, but the loss was way too great; allegedly, it they thought it would go like candy but no they only sold a few, and they had to send whole shipments back. According to some sources, there were even some giveaways..

I think I can write in Hungarian here...

Hello minden magyar Zaurus user!

Én három Zaurus-szal kapcsolatos magyar webhelyről tudok:
- a HWSW.hu Zaurus fóruma (a 33. oldal alja felé van egy magyar billentyűzetkiosztás a pdaXrom-hoz)
- a www.zaurus.hu
- thundermix Zaurus blogja

Ha még tudtok jó magyar Zaurus weboldalakat, akkor azokat írjátok be ide, vagy a HWSW fórumába!

Üdv,
Zümi

Hello!

i am not hungarian but pretty close.
since there is no croatian UG im here!!!
i was just wandering did the situation for purchasnig C7xx changed since your last post??

i am in zagreb, but Budimpesta is really close, so if there is any shop that i can buy new or used zaurus C700 that would be great , i dont want to order it from JP or USA , so please let me know !!!

i am currently using a 5500 wich i bougt from a frend of mine ( he got it in the US).

Cheers neighbours

And now pretty much all of them are dead (I've seen a few Zaurus topics at http://pdamania.hu forums, though). Though now that I'm getting my very own SL-5500 hopefully I can stir things up a little... we'll see .

There's still no way to get Zauruses from anywhere here in Hungary, and even if there was, I bet they would be horribly expensive.

Best way to get it is to order from www.pulster.de or www.trisoft.de. Trisoft is a bit more expensive. BTW I am from Slovakia :-) near Hungary anyway

Hello neighbour ,

What I've been really tempted with is the price of SL-C1000 at GeekStuff4U.com (too bad VAT still has to be paid, and I'm not sure about the toll).

I ordered c1000 from www.pulster.de and price is with VAT (thanks EU) and shipping priece was not so bad and I got original EA-75 power source (110/220V) which is included only with c3100.

We do not charge VAT for Hungarian customers - welcome in the EU

You can find our shop now in english language: http://www.pulster.de/engl

Please note that this is only legal if a customer can provide a registered and verified VAT number (közösségi adószám for Hungary). It is not generally true.

The same holds for importing directly from Japan. They sometimes provide a misprinted invoice to reduce import duties (which are your local VAT).

Sorry to say that, but there are business rules.

Thanks for the information, Nikolaus. Please let me add this:

The Zaurus prices in our shop www.pulster.de/engl are already including the VAT ("taxes") for Hungarion customers. This means, any customer from Hungary has NOT to pay any extra additional VAT.
Because Hungary is EU community member there are also NO duties to pay.

Of course we accept the common business rules.
