Overview

Only the Zaurus SL-C1000 and SL-C3200 are currently in production.

Historical

Zaurus comes from a long line of "Personal Mobile Tools" offered by Sharp. Previous Zaurus had a proprietary OS. This page only covers the models that use a Linux OS.

Specifications

• SL-5000D - Developer model
• SL-5500 - The first model
• SL-A300 - The only Zaurus with no keyboard
• SL-5600
• SL-6000 - Portrait with Continuous Grain Silicon (CGS) screen
• SL-C700 - The first clamshell and first with CGS screen
• SL-C750, SL-C760
• SL-C760, SL-C860
• SL-C1000
• SL-C3000 - The first big box clamshell
• SL-C3100
