6000 - Tosa / 6000 prices

I\'m assuming the Zaurus website will update on the day of the official launch of the Zaurus SL-6000. Amazon and PC Connection have preorders but the official release date of the handheld is March 31 according to Amazon. I am thinking (ie. this is most likely not true so don\'t start rumors) that Sharp will debut a whole new developer site alongside the launch of the SL-6000. It would make sense. *shrug*

General Discussion / Ordered my SL-6000L from Amazon tonight !

Well this is a relief. DrWowe is right; Amazon had posted the device with having Bluetooth and not WLAN. I just rechecked the site and now it says 802.11b so I\'m happy now. I think this is the model I will get since not very many American devices have Bluetooth. I\'ll just buy a card for that later on if I need it.

Yes, maslovsky, but I was referring to what bluedevils said. That I would like the model to have WLAN for $699. Either way, I still want one. Is anybody else still going to get one now that we know an \"official\" price?

Well that\'s cool except I was hoping the SL-6000L came with WLAN instead of Bluetooth as I don\'t really see much need for that for my own personal use. If the Sl-6000L is $699 then the one with integrated WLAN is bound to be a good bit more. I\'ll still get one, but I was hoping I wouldn\'t have to spend more than $700 (minus taxes).

General Discussion / speex to me!

I have done some Speex development in the past. I was actually using the Java bindings as to build a Java application. I do not think that these bindings would run on the Zaurus. I currently do not own a Zaurus but from reading the specifications I do feel the Zaurus is up to the task using the C code. I am very interested in Speex and wish to continue developing projects using it. I will be ordering a Zaurus SL-6000 when it comes available and will hopefully start development on this project shortly thereafter. I will keep everyone posted on my progress.
