Have fun!!

I usually buy my zaurii used from Sofmap 8 (I think that's right) in Akihabara.
Always in perfect condition and a couple hundred (or more) less than new.

A little tip if you're thinking of buying a second-hand Zaurus in Akihabara, make sure everything works perfectly before changing the OS to english. I had a problem with mine (which I managed to fix myself) and when I went back to the shop with my Zaurus in english, the clerk said I had just voided their warranty by modifying the settings. Truly, he doesn't understand what locale setting is about.

But anyway, make sure to keep it in a "default" state, or revert it back BEFORE going to the shop.

I bought mine in a very tiny Softmap shop in Akihabara

Yup- sounds like my usual place, too.  Basically, one small square of a store with
Zaurii usually at the rear left corner- Sofmap 8, I still think it is... :>

I can't tell now if I was just clueless, or if Sofmap didn't have nteen stores the first
few times I went to Akihabara. Now, it's crazy trying to find them and with Bic Camera
having just bought them (or was it the other way around), no telling what will happen
next, although there aren't many (any?) Bic Cameras in Akihabara.
