Hey, what kind of zaurus are those?  I have never seen them before.

This one looks like the 5x00 but it has a camera.

The MI models of the Zaurus use a proprietory OS from Sharp, that what what I have read can't changed to the Qtopia based roms or changed to English.

The wikipedia has a good page on the Zaurus line (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sharp_Zaurus)

There are a heap of sites in Japanese about software for the MI series, just google it.

I know the MI models of the Zaurus use a proprietory OS from Sharp,and its language can't be changed~~~I want to know what rom can make it ?
I want a method which can solve this question.

People only started creating ROMs for the Zaurus when Sharp started putting Linux on them.

As far as I am aware the MI series isn't flashable and today is more of a curiousity/nostalgia buy... like somebody buying an old Sinclair Scientific calculator for curiousity sake.
