Hey all. Anybody know the best place(s) to get a Zaurus in Canada, or
at least in the US to Canada (besides ebay that is)? I'd like to know
what the prices are for the SL-5* models (I'd _love_ a C7*, but even
if available, would probably be way out of my price range).

[url]www.conics.net[/url] sells the c700 for 399 imperial dollars (a little more
in Canadian). They are good people, my mate's got one of the c700 from
conics.net.
The SL-5*00 models you can easily get via amazon.com

I took a quick peek. Where are they located? I've never ordered
anything from overseas before, so I'm a bit hesitant. As well,
wouldn't waranty's be a *real* hassle?

It's something I'm looking into right now. Unfortunately it looks like
they only ship within the US. Not incredibly insurmountable (I've got
American relatives that would probalby lend a hand) and @ this point
seems a lot easier & safer than international. But then again, a C700
would be way cooler than a C5600 ... :?)
thanks for the tip.

He's in Japan. Ordered truck loads of stuff from him already - he's
reliable. What's really nice of him is that he can bid on Yahoo!
Auctions Japan items for you -- really hard to get stuff you can't find
in the USA, and get lots of good, used equipment cheap.
eg. New & Used Japanese Electronic dictionaries far cheaper than they
carry here in the US. Lots of model they don't even carry here. Lots
of older computer equipment, Japan CD-ROM maps & software, etc, etc.

Just ship it back to him to send to the manufacturer. He can act as
a go between.
Besides, this is a Japan-only model, so if you want the
latest&greatest, you'll have to do what everyone else with a C-series
has to do - import one.

BTW. Latest SL-C860 model out for $725. Basically, think SL-C760
with built-in Japanese-English dictionaries with full text translator added.

japan-direct.com and users-side.com
