Anyone Want An Old Zaurus?
« on: January 08, 2010, 03:27:07 pm »
Well, I'm cleaning out the gadgetry and trying to get rid of some of the stuff that I just don't have time for anymore.

That being said, I've got one SL5500 and three SL5600 PDAs that need a new home. Of the SL5600s, there are two PXA255s and one PXA250. I picked these up from a bulk purchase, so they are all well used, but in working condition. They come with battery, but nothing else. I think I restored them to factory default a while back, but honestly I would recommend giving them a fresh start when you get them. Battery life is probably going to be weak, and it doesn't come with a stylus, but you can't beat free. All that I'm asking for is the cost of shipping. I would prefer to ship in the CONUS, but I don't mind shipping internationally if people are willing to pay for it.

If noone else claims the other 5600, I'll gladly take it off your hands.  I'll be in line behind ISO though.

Hi,

If shipping to France is possible (I'll send you via PayPal the shipping cost) I am interested in your 5500, If it remains one.
I love Zaurus !

Tks for your gift to the community.  
Happy new year !

Best regards.
Christophe

I would be interested in one of the 5600's.

So what is the outcome?  I don't come in for a few weeks (months ... year? ) and there is a give-away going on?

I would love to have a 5600 ... but I shall not be greedy!  In fact, I have a 5500 to give away from Asia region.  You pay shipping.  It comes with batt (moderate to weak I think) and dock (if I can find it).  It is my personal one b4 I went with akita (which I just restored to Cacko 1.23 [again!]).

PM me.
Snappy!
