Hello folks,
I'm currently selling my SHARP Zaurus 5500-G on eBay[1].
The machine comes with OpenZaurus[2] 5.3.5, the latest stable relase of
a Debian GNU/Linux based distribution for PDAs, preinstalled.
Package management is handled via the built-in ipkg tool and I recently
wrote a wrapper-tool called ipkg-apt-get[3] which allows easy software
installation ala' apt-get.
It is possible to run various GNU/Linux distributions on the Z, also a
dedicated Debian port is available[4].
As far as I live in Italy I'm actually trying to sell the PDA here in
the country anyway feel free to participate in the on-line auction also
if you live abroad -- I'll arrange the delivering then.
If you should have some questions regarding the PDA itself feel free to
contact me via private e-mail or eBay -- I'll welcome all doubts.
Thanks in advance for your interest and excuse me for this little
off-topic e-mail. Best regards,
I.
P.S. I'm currently not subscribed on debian-handheld so please consider
CC:'ing me on each reply, thanks.
