Yes, I heard something about Union station hot spot some time ago, have not verified it yet though. Wireless TTC would be the coolest thing ever! I mean, aditionally to the stations, imagine the network  inside the subway wagons/Go Trains...too cool to happen I guess, at least, not anytime soon...Some time ago I thought of TTC putting GPS units on their buses/streetcars and  sending the location to some wireless provider. This way you could get the exact location and estimated time for the unit to get to your  TTC stop...I made some research and someone told me the TTC guys would not make the investment...why?  or, better.. would it be true? At least for winter it is a good idea...

Toronto / Zaurus Hardware

I know \'the look\' you are talking about! Last weekend I asked a guy from Battery Plus about a CF Ethernet cable  and I got \'the look\' once again. Then I showed the Zaurus and this guy sent me to Radio Shack(!).  Could you please post the site of this Markham retailer? Thanks!

Toronto / Zaurus Hardware

« on: June 21, 2003, 03:54:24 pm »

I think this has to be the first question everyone wants answered : Do anybody knows if someone is selling the Zaurus + Accessories anywhere in Toronto?

I got my SL5500 browsing through ebay.ca :I found a so-called USA company that turned out to be some guys from Singapur. No complains, I got the Z in three days.

Almost all the Zaurus lists I am subscribed to, have this question from GTA people. Seems there is not a local distributor; or. maybe given the wide availability of web sites to shop around, there is not a local market big enough to justify the effort of stocking Z related stuff.

All malls have a place to buy PDA/Mobile accessories where I can see the Lexmar and Sandisk cards, but when asking some of the attendants about the Z I always receive the same funny look.


If anyone knows more about this, please advise

Thanks!
