I recently bought the Sharp Zaurus SLC3000 pda with the Linx OS. I bought it because I need a pda that has a built-in keyboard and added storage, both of which the SLC3000 has. I also need one that has a good tasks/calendar/contacts program that I can sync back and forth from my host pc. Unfortunately, the sync capability from my windows Outlook program (where my PIM data is stored on my host computer) to this device through Intelisync is terrible, to say the least.
Additionally, I am unfamiliar with the Linx OS and how it works; I have had success only using the windows ce/pocket pc environment. I thought I could convert easily, plus hoped the PIM program on the SLC3000 was more conducive to my needs of being able to sync my contacts, tasks and calendar info back and forth. Unfortunately, I am not able to do this -- and having a hard time generally with this unit. I was wondering if anyone out there knows if I can add the pocket pc OS to this unit -- maybe partitioning an area and then loading the pocket pc OS in the new partitioned space? If this can be done, does anyone know how this is done (or where I can go to find out) and where I can find the OS software for pocketpc? Any and all help is greatly welcomed and appreciated. I am very frustrated by it all.
