Review of Sharp Zaurus SL-C3000

DesignTechnica has reviewed the Sharp Zaurus SL-C3000.  There are a number of PDA fans that consider the Zaurus PDA as one of the most underrated PDAs out there.  The Linux operating system is always cited as one of the many positives of this line of PDAs.

I wouldn't mind owning one of these if it had wifi and Bluetooth included.  Any PDA that I buy must have integrated  wifi and Bluetooth.  You can add wifi to this device, but it's always easier to have it integrated, IMHO.  Plus, it's hard to justify the price of $800+ and then you have to purchase a wifi card on top of that.
