General Discussion / Just a thought

I have never had so much fun, from any computer, fullstop. whatever i want to do, i can do with my \"Z\" it blows my tiny mind. Well tiny compared to the power of my \"Z\". It truly amazes me everytime,me and my bro used to talk about the perfect device and how we were never going to get it,but the Z was truly a landmark experience. a computer for the millenium.
ALL HAIL THE \"Z\"..
ALL HAIL THE \"Z\"..

The biggest limitation in this device is no digitizer-touchscreen capability. I think this is a fatal limitation
I think the biggest limitation is it\'s os!

Off Topic forum / rumours of Linux like Apple Handheld (with hard disk)
« on: April 24, 2004, 02:23:22 pm »Quote
that almost seems like a troll like comment to me.
I bet you have an x-box as well! look i don\'t think your getting it. The \"z\" is a hacker\'s tool basically, so support is and has never been an issue, we who support linux do it unconditionally, we know what we are getting!.
Name Calling is unwarranted and as far as i\'m aware Not allowed, But sticks and stones...

I\'m still looking forward to the release of this, I do plan on getting one of these pending how available they are. First thing I will do is wipe Windoze and install some form of Linux.
I don\'t want touch screen never much cared for it except on a pda and I don\'t plan on this being a pda. Perfect size HD for what I want. Best part I can toss in in my pocket still.
I will never give up my Z I am way to attached but I think the two could compliment each other well.
Why buy it if it isn\'t designed specifically for linux. you know where you stand with sharp!.

THE ONLY GOOD SOFTWARE IS THE CLIE APPLICATION LAUNCHER AND SONY\'S CUSTOM SOFTWARE FOR THINGS LIKE THE VIDEO,BUT IT\'S BASICALLY A PALM ORGANISER, NOT MUCH BETTER THAN A M130, YOUR FORCED INTO PROPRIETARY MEMORY WHICH IS USELESS ON OTHER HARDWARE AND MORE COST,COME ON SONY ARE BASTARD\'S WHO DONT GIVE A F**K ABOUT THERE CUSTOMERS. EVERY MONTH IT SEEMS THEY RELEASE A NEW MODEL COMPLETLY RENDERING YOURS USELESS. CLIE FANATICS OBVIOUSLY HAVE MORE MONEY THAN SENSE.I BUY WHEN I NEED SOMETHING TO DO A JOB!, AND I WANT VALUE FOR MONEY AND LONGEVITY,CAN YOU HONESTLY SAY YOU GET THAT FROM SONY! LASTLY THE REAL KILLER FOR ME WAS I TO USE F*****G WINDOWS. AND WELL I RATHER BE DEAD THAN DO THAT ANYMORE.ALSO EVERYTHING HAS TO BE CONVERTED INTO OBSCURE PDB AND PRC FILES. YOU CANT DO VERY LITTLE NATIVELY. HOW CAN YOU EVEN COMPARE THE \"Z\" (A REAL COMPUTER) TO A CLIE(A SIMPLE DATABANK) BEGGARS BELIEF. BUT YOU HAVE YOUR OPINION..

What?, that is totally absurd,surely porting ogg\'s codec to mac\'s would be easier than back porting the whole of linux to a crappy i-pants, please engage brain, i wonder somtimes i really do!

Firstly welcome to the wonderfull world of unix/linux, and props for picking the best pda/pmt in the meridan of chocies available. I think you will find your \"Z\" will do almost anything, given patience of course.
As for linux, there are many books out there, loads of web guides and heaps of good advice can be found here on the Zaurus user group. Don\'t be frightened of linux, just dive-in and learn, it can be tough but you will really begin to do stuff you could never imagine after a while.
so good luck as you begin your adventure.
peace-out
ps there\'s loads of e-books out there including med journals.
