Not just an app launcher. The Zaurus multitasks, can export or mount NFS or SMB shares, play MP3s, MPEGs, does handwriting recognition, everything that you can compile code for. Apache? MySQL? OpenSSH? yes. I've done it. The Z (stock or running OZ) also uses RAM as filesystem buffer cache, so your 'free' memory may vary. If you need memory, you can make swapspace. (Parodoxically, you can make swapspace in your RAMdrive, to increase the amount of RAM you have!). This is why you can configure OpenZaurus with a variety of storage/RAM splits, esp. if you slap in an SD card as your 'hard drive'. How many PDA's give you a bash prompt?
It packs more RAM and more battery life than the Z-5500, but the Z still has equivalent features - MMC/SD slot (that does NOT honor the DRM of SD cards, btw), a CF slot, plus IR. The Zaurus is under very active development at OpenZaurus.

No, Darth, not penguins with frickin' laser beams. What low-end lasers do people use that are NOT Win32-GDI based? Any cheap lasers that use good old PS or PCL?
The Sharp Zaurus 5500 et al support Linux, in fact, they SHIP with Linux. Install OpenZaurus and you have real Linux, yet with real apps, SSH, etc. etc. And it runs longer than 15 minutes. I mean, this is cool, but hardly the breaking story of the decade.

Fortunately, I hit the karma cap back when there WAS a cap, so your AC mutterings do not reach my lofty ears.

The Zaurus does recognition, too. Even under OpenZaurus.

Those who would give up customizability for simplicity, will lose both, and gain neither.

You don't always get what you pay for - look at the cost of MS Office. But rarely or never do you get something for free.
And also not act like insufferable pricks.
Those who would give up freedom for security will lose both, and deserve neither.
