any idea about Sl6000 sales figures in USA ?

[nilch]

Has anyone ever read something about how well (or most probably badly) the SL-6000 sales is doing in the US of A ?

I know corporate sales are hard to coroborate - but there must be some measuring benchmarks.

Here is what Gartner says for 1Q2004:

52,300   Linux PDAs worldwide (I would assume 95% Sharp, 5% Yopy unless they have counted the Asian smartphones with Linux inside as well)

And Canalys for 2Q2004:

114,700 Linux PDAs worldwide

My rough guess would be that Sharp sells 70% in Japan 20% in USA and 10% in EU as they have all models in their home market Japan, the 5600&6000 in USA and only the 5500 in EU.
