Opera signed up Sharp as a new customer this week. Sharp will use the Linux-based Opera 5 browser in its Zaurus SL-5000D handheld computer. The device runs on an embedded Linux operating system and uses a Java application environment.

Lineo, Trolltech and Insignia Solutions provide the remaining software for the gadget. It uses 206MHz Intel StrongARM system-on-chip processor and features a built-in keyboard available underneath a sliding panel.

Opera for the Zaurus : Comment 6 of 17ANN.lu
Posted by Anonymous on 08-Nov-2001 12:40 GMT
In reply to Comment 4 (Paul):
Why?
Simple.
It mentions Sharp (maker of the Zaurus), Opera (maker of the borwser), Lineo (provider of the actual OS, embedded Linux), Trolltech AS (creators of Qt, the GUI) and Insignia Solutions (providers of the Java system).
But not AmigaDE.
Which, given Bill's "enthusiastic" announcement that Sharp were a major partner of AInc and the AmigaDE would be shipping on millions of Zauruses, would be expected in such a list of the major parties in the product, no?
