we don't get it so much on the zaurus forums, partly because they're a lot quiter these days, and in its heyday there really weren't (m)any serious alternative(s). the Z officially ceased manufacture early 2007, but Sharp carried making small batches till beginning of this year, so now there's virtually no new stock. Thus not many people can actually say I bought something else instead of a Z.

we do get people who leave and get an eee, sometimes a MID, sometimes a Nokia tablet, but many hang on to their Zs and use them for other purposes (me, for example). I think if the 810 had a better keyboard, we'd have had more defectors.
