Zaurus SL-6000x already available!?

[adrian]

Take a look at this japanese kind of pricewatch: http://www.kakaku.com/sku/price/003030.htm it claims that SL-6000L,N,W are already available in Japan.

Only selling for ~800 too

Only one place claims to actually have it in stock, though, and I highly doubt it.  I think these places are just taking pre-orders.  Sharp\'s Japan web site isn\'t touting them yet, and I haven\'t seen any in any stores (though I plan to look tomorrow).

I\'ve contacted one US vendor about the arrival and sales of the SL-6000 and I was told they are \"working it out\" with Sharp.  Sharp claims to be releasing it in a few weeks with \"quantity in mid-March\".

Someone mentioned in another post that there was a release date of Feb 15, but that\'s not likely given the previously mentioned response.  I saw the same kind of early release dates for the SL-5600 last year, but Sharp didn\'t even meet their own prediction of \"first quarter\", let alone early release.  O.K., O.K.  They actually released it the first week of April.  That\'s *practically* \"first quarter\"...
