my latest guess is an 8GB version of the 3100
I'm now an iphone user and use my zaurii as serial terminals, perl and shell scripting and when I need 640x480 screens

Oh I do hope this isn't true, I'd at least like to get my hands on my 3100 before it's superceeded

it's in the US at the moment, and will be flying in with my uncle about the middle of the month, so if thay could wait till then that'd be great

The only thing the Zaurus truly lacks is wifi and bt as far as I'm concerned.  I'd love to see a 4" lcd, faster cpu, more memory and even a kernel bump to 2.6.x, but this would be icing on the cake.

So, I'll settle for wifi, bt and a refreshening of the Sharp supplied applications.

This has certainly sparked the forum interest today  How about a Dual core Zaurus that would be nice

You'll need dual core if you are using translucent windows and shadows or openoffice (and more ram).

I'll bet $20 it's just a HDD upgrade and maybe RAM to 128MB, there really isn't much else to do with the current clamshell package.

I will be really choked if the SL-C3200 has 800x600 or something like that, or if the display was upgraded to an organic LED type. Sharp is big on LCDs.

I doubt we will see anything too new in this generation. (I hope!)

60GB drive
3-D lcd
Integrated camera capable of video conferencing over wifi or phone (CF card)

There is always an improvement to be made on something.  A few months ago, I saw a convention where a guy pulled out a wallet and opened it up, he he pulled a silk cloth from one of the pockets and expanded it.  this was the organic screen.  On the lower half, light transmited a keyboard luminating keys of light on to the table.  crazy stuff.

But for the sharp-

a bigger screen like the one used on the sl-6000 (which many say is much better than the current c-1000 and up) with brightness and contrast control.

Bluetooth and wifi(i hear these are not used in japan that much and this is why  we dont have them built in.)

256-500 of internal memory

8gb inernal cf drive

2gb and up sd card drivers

gps probably as an option

dobule the capacity of battery lithium

thinner?  could this be possible?

of course this is just speculation.

Most of those specs will be covered by UMPC tablets that are going to be announced soon.  We will see how the Z will fairs against those.

I dunno if anyone's noticed but linux for  the HTC universal has made progress, i.e. they've got linux booting off SD card, with graphical console.

If they continue to make progress, I can see that the HTC uni will be what we zaurians have been waiting for!

So, could the surprise be linux-qtopia running on a slightly modified sharp w-zero3 ??

Certainly, having the nokia 770 already in stores and the soon to be announced origamis, we are living nice times now. The desert has finished !

The difference in model number seems small. I would guess it will have wifi inside. Maybe 128 mb of ram. Bigger screen? I wish, but it won't happen.
