Excellent progress on Mobile Offline Blogger today, it should be finished tonight! Figuring out how to package everything for one-click installation may take a little longer, but a download for the hard-core Pocket PC geeks will be available tomorrow.

Zaurus Stuff
Came across some nice Zaurus Cases for the Japanese Domestic Market. Strongly suspect that they would not hold the US model snugly, as the JDM units are wider . Hopefully these guys will adapt and obtain a US distributor. Their English is poor, but their leather products appear to be excellent.
Sharp is finally re-appearing on their own mailing lists, having been quiet for over a month, never even announcing that the SL-5500 had begun shipping. Mostly they are encouraging developers to get their products listed on Handago's Zaurus Section. There are now 50+ downloads listed, and half of them are free.
A number of the free applications come from the OPIE project, which the OpenZaurus ROM is based on. Looking at the screenshots for addressbook and today, it appears that a better Zaurus is being built. The list of OPIE packages is extensive. Unfortunately, the site is geared toward Linux geeks who want a GPL PDA solution. They need to address Ordinary User audience that simply wants to replace the lackluster Trolltech applications with better ones.
