Hmm, not clamshell, but some versions of SL6000 come with CF or even on-board WiFi/BT. My point was rather that it picks up where Zaurus left, and also that the CPU is not powerful (like the one in Zaurus). XScale PXA270, my Zaurus had that too. With Qtopia barely useful. Other apps are dog slow...

Kernel is 2.4.x, that will be annoying for people at least some people wanting to add stuff.

The screen is way to small, browser is Opera Mini, Slow... Most smartphones can do more for less... Not to mention the Pandora....

I really want to like this, but there are way too many "gotchas." And 64MB is not enough RAM to have a real desktop-comparable web browser. Also no storage expansion? ouch. O_o

Funny, Zaurus also had 2.4.x Linux kernel, and also had Opera Mini. :p

hmm, a zaurus conspiracy?

This device seems late to the party. Perhaps it was stuck on a sea container for a couple of years. The website doesn't show the screen size versus the bezel size.

Looks like a trend, no ?

This one seems to have been stuck in a container on a desert island for even longer :

Ha. I think my old TRG Pro with fold out keyboard was more powerful.
