wow, well thats a hell of a lot more than i thought would run on it...
pretty impressive for such a small device actually...
any thoughts on the 5500 vs. the new one?...
i like the look of the older one better... but writing might not be as
easy...
thanks!

hi all...
just wondering if there are any Zaurus users on the list - the older
version not the new one...
I have one.
i've seen one in action and i know its got
good media player facilities
- some kind of xmms i seem to recall?... but im curious as to what else
will run on it...
Yes I guess it can to xmms. It also runs OpieMedia player (in OpenZaurus anyway) that is
based on
libxine. So it can also play divx movie files and stuff also.
You can install csounds on it. But there are not to many programs for
creating multimedia on it. Don't experct to do any realtime stuff with
csounds on the zaurus. You can render it and then listen to it. Even as
root user my 5500 sounds real choppy when trying to play a sine wave a
44.1k 16bit in real time with csounds.
check out zaurus software index and decide for your self. (I mostly use
it for the calender features, address, todo, and checkbook apps):

thinking about getting one as a replacement to the
laptop i thoroughly
destroyed yesterday. dropped it from a bench, shattered screen and
damaged motherboard. i'll be lucky if i get the data back. compaq
armada's are flimsy things - if it had been the Dell i used to have,
chances are it might have been salvagable....
thankx
