Title: Wanted Zaurus Sd Slot
Post by: Fushnchupsh on March 18, 2008, 01:11:55 pm
Ok, most of us around here have working zaurii....  However, I know some of you have duds just sitting around.  My z's sd slot is dead, which is kind of limiting.  I am looking to pick one up.  I emailed brett at conics awhile ago but I never got a final response.  The board just plugs into the mother board and is easily removed.  Anyone who is looking to part of this piece pleeeeease post.

I presume one would work from a 1000, 3000, 3100 or 3200, so there should be a good chance of finding a spare?

That's what I am hoping.  From what I understand they are basically the same except the 3200 was a different version of the motherboard?  Either way the SD slot should work

I thought the 3200 was identical to the 3100 other than the hard drive and a different revision of the CPU which is less amenable to overclocking.

There  is an online Japanese site that has all sorts of parts for the Zaurus.
I looked through my 300+ Zaurus bookmarks, but cannot find it.
It's mentioned here on this forum somewhere.
They carry screen parts, case shells, and a whole lot more for the Zaurus.
I just wish I could find it now...

I am in a similar situation with my SL-5500. My 5500 works fine, only it has a crack on the screen and so the touchscreen does not work.

If anyone out there has a bricked/broken 5500 (with a working screen) laying around just gathering dust I would be happy to buy it for a fee (postage + ) Just send me a msg or contact me at this address: aca@untergrund.net. This way you know at least part of your old 5500 is being made use of by someone who greatly appreciates it!

Jon_J: if you find that link, please post.

regards!

Sorry, I meant revision, not version.  Thanks for your help all.  Still looking, if anyone has/finds one, please let me know.
