As I said in another post, I live in Tokyo and just bought a SLC860, but it was a gift for my wife. She loves it. Hooked up a CF wifi card to it and loaded it up with SD and CF memory and there is nothing she can't do with it. Encoded a movie for it and it played nice, a few frames missing, but nice.
The price has come down here in Tokyo to about $515 in Japanese yen. Wifi CF cards are about $50. So for close to $600 you can have it.
I'd be willing to pick one up if someone wanted it for a small fee say $25;)
GM your 860 looks damn nice. I can't change my wife's though because she needs the Japanese appz and text abilities.
Hola, I live in Tokyo and make a trip at least once a week to Shinjuku or Akihabara to see what's new.I just bought a Sharp Zaurus SLC860 for my wife but haven't had much time to play around with it myself. It's a pretty nice little mobile tool, but we are probably going to sell it and buy a bigger but still very small vaio. There is a store called http://www.sofmap.com and they carry quite a nice selection of new and used laptops/PDAs. The laptops here are tiny and powerful and trendy. Starting to see a lot more people using them on the trains to work.
