If you are using Cacko rom and considering purchasing TKC apps then this might be of value to you.

If you use Cacko's rom, we cannot support our apps on it and Cacko has been
breaking compatibility - just a caution.

Sash and I don't want TKC to have their hands on the ROM we're supporting. Period.

People, who has been with the Zaurus community for a while, know the reason.

Even better are the posts in the last couple days about people stating that they would pay for the tkcROM development, and Shawn Gordon's response:

 please, this isn't helpful.  If you honestly want to see continued
 development and an update, then we would need to have $5,000 raised to
 finance the development and support of it.  We would be more than happy to
 then pick it up and give it a priority.

Five fricking grand!!!  
I love you guys that are developing stuff here......

Yes, and note that they did almost nothing except for labeling a ROM... That is some expensive label
