A co-worker of mine brought me a Sharp Zaurus SL-C1000 and was looking for assistance in replacing the current ROM with a more capable ROM.
From the look of the unit it has some type of branded Citibank (the financier) ROM.
The settings and available software is very limited, plus there seems to be some language support problems. Allot of the dialog is in unrecognizable or unsupported characters.
I'm looking for assistance in possibly replace or flashing the ROM with a better one.
Can anyone point me in the right direction? Cheers!

search for Cacko, pdaXrom or Open Zaurus (OZ). Those are you main choices for new roms.
www.cacko.biz
www.pdaxrom.org
www.openzarus.org.
If you use the search function in the forums you will find support and help for installing and configuring.
Good luck

Is Citibank an American company? If so, it seems a bit strange that they'd be using a poorly translated grey market import as part of their infrastructure. Someone must have made one hell of a business case for that.
Makes you wonder how much of a business market there would be for Sharp to re-introduce the Clamshells to North America. (<-Wishful thinking.)
