C1000/3x00 Hardware / Im A Linux And Zaurus Newbie..

Thanks for the help!

Which CF bluetooth card do you have?

And do your themes work with the 3100 also, or only the 3000?

in your opinion, does the 3100 make the 3000 outdated? Is it significantly faster?

I would save about 200$ U.S. if I went with the 3000.

Thanks,
Anthony

C1000/3x00 Hardware / Im A Linux And Zaurus Newbie..

Well...I'm taking the plunge and will switch from using PocketPC to Linux.

Only problem is, I'm a Linux newbie.

I'm still debating wether to get the 3100 or the 3000. I know of the different specs, but most people say the difference isn't worth the extra price.

Now...I hate and HATE the GUI. I understand there's an open-source project called OpenZaurus, which has some nice interfaces and is a complete flash of the device (which, even following those instructions, I'm not sure I'd be able to do..yes, newbie, I'm pretty good with PC's/Windows though, so I'm not totally computer illiterate)

Are there any others for the 3100/3000?

Has anyone tried a CF bluetooth adapter and dialed into a GSM network using a BT cellphone (my business requires me to have data on the go).

Any reputable vendors that post around here? I like buying from vendors who frequent forums, as I can tlak directly to them

I'm from Canada, if that matters much in shipping and from which vendors I can buy from.

Thanks,
Anthony
