WOW!!! True laptop performance/near handheld size.

See what I mean, can\'t stop looking, always, always seeking and never finding. I feel pity. Sell your Z.

padishah_emperor,

200LX!  Yehaa!  I loved my 200LX.  That was the last great x86 PDA... None of the PDAs since then had an Intel x86 CPU running a high-resolution screen (640x200) that was the same size.  ...until I bought my Zaurus 860.  640x480, and if I can only get the Bochs running on it I will finally feel that I have a true replacement for my old 200LX... may she rest in peace.   ...it only took the market 10 years to come a full circle with VGA screens that fit in your pocket...

...but thanks for the nastalgia.

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!

[beartoe]

Advantage: runs *nix.
BIG disadvantage: no touchscreen, nor one planned.
Not for me.

If you read all those device feature and price, you understand that the Zaurus is still the best choice. No doubt.

[vishnja]

Common! One day something with a better hardware than the Z will come out... But does it also mean, you would buy it?

[amrein]

If the OS is Linux and if the device really fill my needs then yes.

I\'m loyal with my friends and I expect that they are loyal with me. A commercial company has no friend. The bond between a company and its curstomers is based on exchange of money services and products. There\'s no love nor loyalty (and US is certainly where this is the most strongly true).

I hope that I answer to your question. I\'m sure that it\'s exactly what you wanted to here from me.
Amazing game, isn\'t it?

Well said.  Let\'s not make these things so personal, OK?  The Zaurus is a nice product.  Someday there might be a better one from a competitor.  What\'s the point of \"loyalty\"?

[padishah_emperor]

Some people do or can have loyalty depending on certain things, it can also depend on one\'s own tradition/culture/world-view, likes or dislikes. I\'ve just been trying to define my loyalty on another thread, so I won\'t cross-post here.
