Accessories / Which Cf Wifi Should I Buy?

« on: December 02, 2004, 10:36:08 pm »

I picked up a Sony WL100 from a Bestbuy when I was in Chicago last year.  It was $50 and I've used it in my Clie, my Dell Axim and now my Zaurus.  If you can find one being cleared out (replaced by the WL110) or on eBay I highly recommend it.  It's a rebadged Intel 2011, which in turn is some sort of rebadged Symbol/Socket card (previous generation).

Otherwise, Factorydirect.ca has the SMC2642w for $50 Cdn.

Accessories / Camera Battery In A Zaurus?

Sorry to spoil the party but the helper notes inside my 5500's battery bay indicate that the "+" contact should be closer to the edge. Marking on the EA-BL06 confirms this. The picture you link to clearly indicates that DCB-NP60's polarity is exactly oppostie... Although the image also indicates a capacity of 900mAh whereas the spec sheet says 1100mAh so maybe the polarity is also wrong? One can always hope...

Drat.  Maybe it can be put in upsidedown?  

Oh well, back to ebay...

Accessories / Camera Battery In A Zaurus?

In my search for a cheap alternative to mail ordering an extra battery for my c760 that I could actually buy in Canada, I thought I'd check for any camera batteries that could fit.  What I found is:

http://www.master-instruments.com.au/brows...l/DCB_NP60.html

This battery is 0.1mm longer than the EA-BL06, but the other dimensions match, so I'm thinking that it could be convinced to fit.  As a bonus, it's 1100mAh, versus the 950mAh of the EA-BL06.  

Now apparently this camera battery fits:

Kodak Easyshare LS633
Pentax Optio 330
Pentax Optio 330RS
Pentax Optio 430
Pentax Optio 430RS
Ricoh Caplio RR30/RRR11
Casio Exilim EX-Z3
Casio Exilim QV-R3
Casio Exilim QV-R4
Panasonic SV-AV10K
Panasonic SV-AV10
Panasonic SV-AV30
Fuji / Fujifilm F601 / F601 Zoom
Fuji / Fujifilm F401 / F401 Zoom
Fuji / Fujifilm 50i
Fuji / Fujifilm F410
Fuji / Fujifilm 1400
Fuji / Fujifilm 2300
Fuji / Fujifilm 2400

Anyone have any of those cameras?  Does the battery look like it would fit?  Is the polarity correct?  I wouldn't actually try out the battery in your zaurus unless you know what you're doing...!

Thanks!
