- Since I have a shiny new C-1000, I don't seem to use the old Z any more. Poor thing's getting depressed! So I'd like to sell it to a good home, where it can be happy and useful once again. This has:
- A Zaurus SL-5500 with the stock Sharp ROM v3.1. This has some wear that the flip cover put on the case around the screen, and some on the back cover, but otherwise it's in superb condition.
- A Panasonic 64MB SD card. The installed software does not fit into the unit without some external storage. Since it's unusable, imho, without the software, the SD comes with it so you'll have something more functional.
- theKompany addressbook, calendar, and paint. These aren't installed, but I don't use them and never intend to use them, so the rights to them will come with this unit.
- A spare battery and external battery charger. The SL-5500 does not reboot when you change batteries, so this allows you to carry spare juice around where-ever you go. Just pop the other one into the external charger and you're never slave to the wall wart.
- Charger, cradle, cables, manuals, etc that shipped with it originally. I am the original owner, and it will arrive in the original box, with the original packing.
- Installed software:
KO/PI 2.1.1 and KA/PI 2.1.1 for agenda/address management
zSafe for password management
neoCal 1.4.4; an RPN multi-purpose calculator
Advanced Text Editor; better than the text editor it came with
qpeAlarmcock; for alarms, which were strangely missing
subapplet; moves lower-right icons off the main bar into a sub-bar. VERY nice.
qpdf; the standard for Z pdf reading
kpacman; took forever to get this Opie app to work, but it does.
konsole; Not as good as QKonsole, but far superior to Terminal.
memoryapplet; Manage swap file from an applet icon, quick and easy.
rotation; rotate Z screen - not on-the-fly, but the next app launched.
sysinfo; Opie's better sysinfo utility
plus lots and lots of other stuff, some of which came with the unit, and some that I found.
- The reason this doesn't work without the SD is a lot of this stuff has been moved to the SD card and symlinked to the original locations. That was the only way to fit all the software on it and still have enough left for a swap file (the only way to make a 5500 run properly) and a few megs free for whatever. There's about 26MB of stuff installed to the SD, primarily Hancomm apps, games, and some support libraries.
- The BlueZ install files are on the SD but they aren't installed. Put them there while I was troubleshooting BT on the C1000, and they're still on there.
- I'm thinking $175, shipping included. What do you think?
