| 17:21.41 | cycom | Which keyboard is easier to use for something like ssh, a Zaurus C-1000's or a SL-5600's? |
| 17:22.09 | [booyaa] | c's i think |
| 17:22.27 | [booyaa] | but only if i can use a bt stowaway keyboard |
| 17:22.52 | [booyaa] | you can't really use either for serious coding unless you want blackberry thumbs |
| 17:26.46 | cycom | [booyaa]: this is just for random sshing to check on stuff. I like the whole Linux on a PDA and kismet thing, but they're very expensive. |
| 17:27.20 | [booyaa] | well i think the 5600 will be cheaper than the clam shells. |
| 17:27.48 | cycom | I can get a palm TX for $300 retail with wireless and bluetooth build in, but th 5600 is like 330. And it doesn't have wifi built in, right? |
| 17:27.54 | [booyaa] | i've got a 5500. it rocks. i was lucky that a got it for free (from a mate). i also got a wlan cf card for free too. |
| 17:28.04 | cycom | [booyaa]: you lucky bastard :) |
| 17:28.07 | [booyaa] | yup i think that's right... i think it has bt..but i'm not 100% certain. |
| 17:28.15 | [booyaa] | hell yeah cycom ;) |
| 17:28.48 | [booyaa] | well if the linux on a pda is a novelty then go for the palm tx. you get mobile surfing to boot. never fancied an ipaq? |
| 17:28.56 | cycom | [booyaa]: well, I got the box I'm IRCing from for free. Dual 600mhz PIIIs with 1gb of ram and an 18gb scsi hd. I have since aquired an additional 300gb across various drives, all free. |
| 17:29.27 | cycom | [booyaa]: cheap, with not much ram or rom and made by compaq, who made my first laptop, which I had to return after 2 months because the screen was already dying. |
| 17:29.39 | [booyaa] | ah |
| 17:29.40 | cycom | (Ipaqs) |
| 17:30.08 | [booyaa] | see if you got bored or bought new kit. for the ipaq you could eventually stick linux (familiar) on it. |
| 17:30.37 | cycom | oh, I know. I've looked into it. but the zaurus already has it, AND it has the built-in keyboard |
| 17:30.44 | [booyaa] | well i love the zaurus. i wish it had better battery life. |
| 17:30.55 | cycom | what kind of life do you get from yours? |
| 17:31.41 | [booyaa] | just to whet your appetite... i've got snes, exult (ultima 7), mame, c64 emulators. it's become the ultimate portable gaming device until i get my gp2x. |
| 17:31.57 | [booyaa] | i'm getting 2 hours tops nowadays. but then again this could be because i got an old ass battery. |
| 17:33.04 | cycom | Lithium Ions go bad after like a year |
| 17:33.09 | cycom | (From what I've seen |
| 17:33.21 | [booyaa] | is that what the zaurii have? |
| 17:33.32 | cycom | I think so. |
| 17:33.36 | cycom | gp2x? |
| 17:33.40 | cycom | is that any good? |
| 17:33.45 | [booyaa] | dude join us and get a zaurus. pick up a cheap cf wlan card off ebay. JOIN US!! |
| 17:34.05 | [booyaa] | well i'm gonna get mine in august. apparently it rocks quite hard |
| 17:34.08 | cycom | bah. I'd rather save and get a new one. |
| 17:34.11 | [booyaa] | it's arm based too |
| 17:34.54 | [booyaa] | mind you i have too many pdas nowadays. i got a blackberry for work. the zaurus for play and sofa surfing. |
| 17:35.31 | [booyaa] | i wish playing streams was better. it's very choppy. but i am using the stock mediaplayer that came with the sharp... |
| 17:36.35 | cycom | [booyaa]: does the 5500 have an SD card slot? |
| 17:36.38 | cycom | or is it just CF? |
| 17:36.50 | [booyaa] | both |
| 17:36.53 | [booyaa] | but i think sd is only for storage |
| 17:37.14 | cycom | and the streaming video thing might be 802.11b. I found that I couldn't stream well to my laptop with that narrow a pipe |
| 17:37.20 | [booyaa] | dude do you consider yourself a hacker or a computer user? |
| 17:37.43 | cycom | little o both. I run Kubuntu on my laptop, and ran a gentoo box for a while. I work with cisco switches and things too. |
| 17:37.58 | [booyaa] | dude. you're a hacker. do yourself a favour. get a zaurus. |
| 17:38.03 | cycom | heh |
| 17:38.12 | cycom | what, do you work for sharp or something ;) |
| 17:38.18 | [booyaa] | palm's are for computer users. you'll get lots more from the zaurus.. |
| 17:38.24 | cycom | I know, I'm just a broke hacker right now. |
| 17:38.41 | cycom | I'm thinking I'll do it as a self reward for As next semster. |
| 17:38.45 | [booyaa] | nah just a big fan ;) |
| 17:38.52 | [booyaa] | cool!! |
| 17:39.31 | cycom | I'm still on the fence when it comes to 5600 or 1000. If I'm going to go, I'm going to go pretty big. |
| 17:39.41 | cycom | Not internal hd big, but big. |
| 17:40.11 | [booyaa] | might wanna think about the c series.. i think they have usb host capability. which means you could stick all kinds of stuff like keyboard and mouse on the sucker... |
| 17:40.48 | cycom | That would be good. I'd use an external HD :) |
| 17:40.53 | cycom | maybe a flash drive? |
| 17:41.27 | [booyaa] | lemme go find this site..this dude's site has a zaurus cxxxx series totally tricked out.. momento |
| 17:42.19 | cycom | what's the processor in a 5500? |
| 17:42.24 | [booyaa] | http://www.users.on.net/~hluc/myZaurus/ |
| 17:42.40 | [booyaa] | no idea man. the oesf.org wiki had the hardware details |

| 19:39.18 | Sy_Ali | See [booyaa]'s link.. quote: I also found a USB mini A host adaptor cable to enable the USB host capability of the Zaurus. |

| 20:23.16 | cycom | Sy_Ali: cool. Also, does the keyboard have a ctrl type key? I use screen a lot and need to be able to do like a ctrl+a d |
| 20:24.50 | Sy_Ali | Yes, and in fact it has two control keys. =) -- Bottom-left has Fn, Ctrl, Ctrl, Alt .. The second and third keys are the only keys written in japanese and both are usually remapped as Alt, and something else. |
| 20:25.29 | Sy_Ali | There are no keys which are "missing".. just wierd to get to. Like { is Fn-o |
| 20:31.27 | [booyaa] | someone should make a wallet sized keyboard layout thing.... pocketmod could do all the fancy page formatting... |
| 20:31.39 | [booyaa] | anyway g'nite! |

| 20:34.44 | Sy_Ali | Hmm, a keyboard layout helper would be very nice. It could be done like the various table of elements charts. A picture of the keyboard.. scroll around to see it all, zoom in/out like a pdf. Hover over one to see its specs, click ok to change what the key should do. |
