Great Zaurus Apps Review
Tong writes "PDA Buyer's Guide published a round up review that lists some eseential Zaurus applications. This review will help new users who just bought a Zaurus PDA to get started and find the apps that make it fun to use their Zaurii. Here is the link to the review."
I have always looked for a WebDAV client for PDAs. Never found any. With such a wide ranges of PDAs and applications for them, one would think atleast one PDA would support WebDAV.
Consensus is good, but informed dictatorship is better
If price isn't an issue, hold off until the Zaurus 6000 comes out. It'll have more memory and a higher resolution screen. It'll probably cost a pretty penny though.
If cost is an issue, Amazon's selling 5600s for less than 300 now. Interestingly, it's been rumored since January that some of the 5600s from Amazon have the PXA255 CPU which is faster than the PXA250 which originally came installed in the 5600. However, I just got mine a couple of weeks ago and it had the PXA250.
Another thing to note is that Sharp's developer site has been down for at least a few weeks now. It's not clear when it'll come back up.

Very few people can verify the security of security software. I can at least hack out a "hello world" program in 5 or 6 different languages, but I wouldn't have a clue how to verify the security of a GPL keyring app, nor would I have the inclination. Your app may be large enough that research institutions have done that work, but how many would bother to verify a memo pad application? or the security of a checkbook?
In some ways, this is an honest question. Aside from saying "we use X plugin from RSA" or "the university of wisconsin has verified us," how can one person ensure the security of what they work with?
