not really worth the effort for the differences imo
In my experience, the older hancom apps start up with a file open dialog box which lists all the files they could possibly open as a giant long list, no indication of where they are located just a long list. And in the older hancom word, this long list is even longer as each file seems to be replicated three times.
In the newer hancom apps, they open with a blank document and the file open dialog actually allows you to browse through the zaurus for things.
I personally prefer this latter approach and personally think that having a PDA without a decent and functioning spreadsheet and word processor makes a PDA a bit of a pointless thing to have if you can't even have such standard and basic applications.
As per usual, I've tried OZ 3.5.1, I've really liked the look of it, but the fact that I can't use the hancom apps, I have to use word and excel files everyday, has forced me to go back to tkRom yet again.
Ok, I'm no developer and I apologise for not being one, because ranting about something I can't contribute towards seems extremely hypocritical even to myself, but I find the apparent lack of interest in developing the basic, core apps, like a word processor, a spreadsheet, a decent pim, a decent media player and a web browser for this platform to be extremely frustrating.
I consider myself to be a normal user that likes to do a few non standard things with my PDA, that's why I bought the Zaurus in the first place, the opportunity to do all the standard things, but flirt with more advanced things as well was the selling point for me. BUT, constantly and consistently with the Zaurus, and I'm guessing Linux PDAs on the whole, they've proven themselves to be purely niche products, aimed purely at geeks and the like, who are happy to put their barely used by the masses programs on them at the expense of more standard apps. Yet it's these standard apps and their functionality that appeal to the normal user and if these standard applications were actually decent and pleasant to use, you'd find more normal users using this platform and as a result more demand for it and thus more units sold and more development in linux PDAs and thus more toys for the geeks to put their less standard apps on.
I'm not surprised that Sharp has begun to abandon the platform outside of it's main market of Japan, no normal user is really interested in buying a PDA that they can't just use for their standard day to day tasks. They might as well buy a palm or a pocket pc that just do these things.
I just think that by ignoring the basics, the linux PDA platform is never ever going to take off in anyway and that it will forever remain a niche and that's just such a shame.
