the current developer model was $400; it has 32M of memory.
and isn't available to the general public yet -- though I had seen a couple
of postings on the Zaurus forums about one/some floating around on eBay.

the consumer model should be out ~March, I've heard
and maybe sell for $500-550 -- but it would have 64M
(and may make the File Manager and Terminal apps not quite so prominent).

as of Dec, a lot more work needed to be done to make the built-in apps more
usable, but there's supposed to be a new ROM image to install any day now,
so I'm hoping there are lots of improvements.
