No, the first Zaurus, the SL 5000 D developer unit, have 32 MB RAM. 16 MB for storage and 16 MB for runtime RAM. It also have 16 MB Flash for the System ROM. Newer modells have more, see http://www.zaurus.com/dev . The SL 5000D also have a Cf and a SD slot. The Zaurus hardware is similar to actual Pcoket PCs. And many games on Zaurus and PocketPC shows that more is possible than the games in the Amiga Game Pack offer.
But, I think you are right. If I remember right, Sharp / Amiga only wants small games/programs. Maybe the first plan was to run this games on the old Zaurus systems without Linux which are sold in Japan and also on the new ones. |
