01:26.03merchas sharpusa changed their site or something? firefox doesnt like it anymore, apparently..
01:27.22SuNDidn't they shut that down?
01:27.27SuNOr was that a different site?
01:28.47mercsharpusa.com is still there, it just comes up with text for a split second, then poof..i see nothing.
01:29.21SuNSeems to load fine in Opera.
01:29.38mercyeah..wish i hadnt uninstalled opera now.

01:29.41merc*sigh*
01:29.49SuNHeh, I forgot Sharp makes other stuff besides Z's
01:30.26merclol
01:30.36mercim thinking about asking for one for christmas..
01:32.17SuNI just got my new one.
01:32.28SuNI used to have a 5500 but got a 860 now.
01:32.59merci want a 5600
01:33.20SuNThe 5600 is pretty low on ram, I'd say you'd be better off with a 5500.
01:33.41mercreally?
01:33.47merchrm..
01:33.57SuNThe 5600 has 43MB RAM opposed to 64MB on the 5500, odd decision
01:34.09SuN.Eh 32MB opposed to 64.
01:34.15mercindeed, maybe they figured the proc speed would make up for it.
01:34.34SuNThey didn't think so in the 700 :)
01:34.50mercwould i be missing any other features? if i went with the 5500? like wireless or digital camera stuff etc?
01:35.00SuNNah those would all work with the 5500.
01:35.08merchrm..
01:35.12SuNIf you can find one cheaply, do consider the 700 though.
01:35.18merchrm
01:35.35SuNIf I'm correct, it has 64MB RAM and is equal to the 5600 otherwise.
01:35.51mercc700?
01:35.57SuNYep
01:36.42merci really like the 5500/5600..
01:37.02merci already have a laptop..i want something i can toss in my pocket and stuff
01:37.16merci wish there was a sharp store around or something..
01:37.42SuNThe 700 is smaller then or equally sized as the 5x00 series.
01:37.47SuNIt may look bigger but it isn't.
01:38.18mercthe 5x00 series looks pimper too :)
01:38.57SuNI guess that's a matter of preference
01:39.52SuNI really prefer the C-series form factor, though the SL5500 had a better NES emu button layout :)
01:41.12mercwhaoh, an sl6000 is out?
01:41.17merclol
01:42.07SuNEh yes :)
01:42.13mercholy 500 dollars
01:42.36SuNA bargain if you ask me.
01:42.52mercsheesh
01:43.15mercwish sharpusa.com still had the 5500 and 5600 up there, so i could compare them
01:43.45mercoo, built in wireless..
01:53.30mercawesome, a prism chipset..

02:08.04mercerr, while you're at it give me a 6000 :)
02:08.20offroadgeekgo buy one  :)
02:11.55offroadgeekmerc: why do you want a 6000 over a c series?
02:17.53mercjust like it better i guess
02:18.06mercdunno really, im just starting to do some actual research
02:18.13merci've been drooling over them since the 5600 came out
02:21.52subdueI like the usb host adapter in the 6000

02:23.47mercheh..spam!
02:24.16SuNI wonder how the fuck that guy ended up on freenode
02:24.40mercdoesnt seem like the best network to spam..really..
02:25.27mercahh, outpimp.com is one of those sites where you recruit pimps or something
02:25.45SuNIm pretty pimp already, I have to say.
02:25.56mercyeah, he's my bitch!
02:36.32SuNI need to get a nice case for my C860... can anyone recommend something?
02:36.47mercpaper bag!

03:02.21mercdamn, people on zaurususergroup said they got the sl-6000L from amazon for 400 bucks, its 500 now :X
03:03.05SuNThat's what happens when things get scarce.
03:03.12subdueyou're a few months late
03:03.22mercgrr
03:03.49mercthey're discontinued? i wonder how long they will last.
03:03.54subduelots of used 860's 7x0, 6000 still available
03:03.59subduethey're not d/c'd
03:04.04mercoh, just in the US ?
03:04.05subduejust not actively supported
03:04.12subduecheck ebay
03:04.33mercah..hrm..yeah i did..they're all these ones with a camera included, maybe that's the way to go.
03:05.03SuNApparently the camera was on sale for $19.95 or $29.95 at some place.
03:05.14SuNThat's why a lot of those have cameras.
03:05.22mercahh
03:05.43SuNI'd like one for 19.95, but not for the $70 or more people are asking on Ebay,
03:06.41SuNHeh, I was wondering why my background didn't load, but I linked it from an nfs drive.
03:06.47merci guess the way to go would be ebay, that way i could get some extras, for the same price as the 500 retail.
03:09.22mercwhaoh, can turn this sucker into a cell phone?
