Newton Spare or Zaurus?

I know a body doesn't NEED two of these little guys, but how nice is it to have a spare? J&K Sales has about twenty left. At the same time I'm kinda sorta semi-lusting after Sharp's new UNIX Zaurus, spendy as it's going to be, when it's released "early 2002".

I'd say Zaurus since you've already got a newt. But when it's going to be released is anyone's guess...

torifile,
One each it is, thanks. The Newt just arrived and I just unwrapped it. Am so excited :D Definitely did not feel like this when my (now long dead) Palm Pilot came three plus years ago. Am off to download a manual. One at home but I want to get going now!

Zaurus can be pre-ordered on Amazon and will ship by end of march. I am part of the developers program and have an SL-5000D (vs. SL-5500) and it is a great little device. This I think will be a major contender in the handheld market.

I also can answer an questions concerning the Zaurus also.

Hi, thanks for the info I'll go it out on Amazon. Do you know if the Zaurus will work with PC Card HD such as Toshiba's?
