Post by: gozau on May 03, 2005, 11:57:35 pm

At least one retailer http://www.sdgsystems.com/catalog/default.php (http://www.sdgsystems.com/catalog/default.php) is apparently retailing the sharp sl6000 again.

Take a look.

From Slashdot:

An anonymous reader writes "A high-end Linux-based Sharp Zaurus PDA thought to be discontinued in the US is actually available from two sources. The SL-6000L is available from stock from 10East, a seller of vertical market systems for the railroad industry which has established a direct manufacturing relationship with Sharp Japan, it says. The Wi-Fi equipped SL-6000L is also available in single quantities from SDG Systems, which, incidentally, is porting Linux to several PDAs that normally run Windows, including the super-rugged TDS Recon."
