6000 - Tosa / Expansion Adapter vs Extra Battery Question

« on: May 10, 2004, 05:57:47 am »

Hi all

I am deciding between:
1 “Sharp CF Expansion Adapter for the SL6000L Model CE-JC2” - $165
2 “Sharp Zaurus EA-BL06 Rechargeable Lithium Ion Battery” - $37

Price difference is so high that it’s difficult to justify buying the Expansion Adapter. I am trying to weight all their pros and cons. Actually, my primarily need is an extra battery. Though the Expansion Adapter has also some other useful features.

But there is one question I don’t know the answer. Is it possible to charge the Expansion Adapter without connecting it to Zaurus? As I assume it’s impossible to charge an extra battery without inserting it into Zaurus.
Can anybody confirm my assumptions? If my assumptions are correct it could be another one point in favor of the Expansion Adapter.

Thank you in advance

Yury

Hi all  

My friend is going to US in the beginning of May. I am going to order Zaurus 6000L from Amazon.com to be delivered to his hotel in Los Angeles. He is going to stay there for 3 days. If I order 6000 from Amazon one day before he arrives to US will the delivery come in time? I understand that there is no guarantee, but I will appreciate if somebody shares his experience.

I need to order Zaurus with all necessary accessories at one shot. Could you recommend me what to order?

I guess that I need an extra battery. Is this \"Sharp CF Expansion Adaptor for the SL6000L Model# CE-JC2\" a battery?

I am going to use GPRS via Bluetooth in my mobile phone. What CF card for Bluetooth is better to order? Preferably from Amazon.com as well.

And very important for me is an external keyboard. I was thinking about buying a foldable one. Is anybody using and can recommend one?

Thanks in advance
