Is the C700 worth it?

[jem58]

If you read my messages in the \"Dual Boot Setup\" thread, you may come to the conclusion, like I have, that I have bricked my SL-5500, (Which I am genuinely annoyed about) and the mere thought of not having another zaurus horrifies me - once you purchase one, you\'re not getting out!  So my questions are these: Where can you still purchase the C700 with an English OS? I dont want to tinker around in Japanese. What price is it? Hopefully it will be in the $400 range? Or is that far too little? I\'m not exactly full of money right at the moment, otherwise I\'d go for the C750 (unless its price drops a good amount)
I dont really want to just get another SL-5500 or SL-5600, as I\'d like to try out the different form factor, with the better screen and keyboard (and running pdaxrom  :wink: ) Is the C700 worth its value, or are you better off with a different model of similar price? And finally can it run all my 5500 applications?

For all I know I may not have bricked my Z, but I still want a change  

Help, as usual, is appreciated,

Jem

As no-one has yet replied, I\'ll add a bit to my question. From my SL-5500, I already have a 64mb sd card and a 256mb cf card. So would I be able to create a swap file on my sd card to compensate for the lack of internal RAM? Or would it still suffer considerably? I still have my SL-5500, so I am used to a short battery life! Do these help make the C700 a more attractive offer?  
Last question: how well would pdaxrom run on the sd card with the aforementioned details?

The same questions from before still apply  

P.S I found www.conics.net offering the C700 in the right price band

It is not a good idea to create swap on a flash card. This will reduce the lifetime of your sd card, because flash card are just made for finite count of write procedures.
