I've sent a scope to HK, so no big deal at local post office, though you'll need to be explicit re what to declare on the green? form thingie.. Natch you'd want via Air; again - it's small. Ashton who just happened to drop in here to clear an LRPD :-\ufffd
Post #34,576 by dmarker2 4/6/02 10:53:59 AM Reply	Re: Tks will follow up in a few days - just bought an iPaq 3870 with 64+64 Ram - 66mhz processor, bluetooth & Windows 2002. WHAT A CROCK OF SHIT configuring that software is !!! -- I needed to buy the thing as my requires me to be expert on all the PDAs etc: & what they offer. MSIE on win2002 is pathetic. Setting up network connections using bluetooth is worse (I have a blue tooth phone). The YOPY browser was far better. The writing software is good - perhaps better than PALM but only equal to YOPY. I am really looking forward to the Zaurus. Also today HK shops started selling the new SONY PDAs - they are so durned chaep & they say the HK & English versions will be cheaper - such a beautifull looking machine + MP3 + a big swvelling screen. The local price is 3280 HK (400 US). This product just needs to be expanded to add more ram (16-64) & a faster processor & Linux (comes with PALM 4.1) - it would push the price up to about 500US but it is a killer device (so light). Will be in contact re send HK freight costs to you etc: Cheers & thanks doug (within 1 week)

Post #34,595 by tonytib 4/6/02 4:47:23 PM Reply	Sony swivel NR-70 is $500 USD For more, you can check out sites like PalmInfocenter.com. It's more expensive here (US) than in Asia. It's currently the fastest PalmOS device (66 MHz 680xx Dragonball). For anything faster than that, you'll have to wait for ARM-based Palm 5 based machines in the fall. Other downsides include low battery life (half that of the T615) and larger size. The Zaurus is available at Fry's, but it's a little pricey (similar to PocketPC, about $650 IIRC). Next time I'm at Fry's I'll have to look at it in a little more detail. BTW, you can also run Inferno OS on iPaq's -- I've seen it done at trade shows. And, I'm very happy with my new Sony T615 (blue). Then again, I only want a PDA, not a singing, dancing, mainframe that finds in my hand. Tony

I will get a copy of the English CD but in the meantime you can install the English drivers (sync) for the T615 as they seem to be the same. Screen is quite readable in neon lighted office. Now to get that Zaurus to Ashton & compare it. Cheers Doug
