Cables
and Connectivity
Currently we offer two cables to connect the Sharp Zaurus to the outside
world. The USB version is used to connect the Sharp to any desktop computer for
synchronization and file transfer, as a replacement for the bulhy Sharp cradle.
The serial version on the other hand is used to connect the Sharp to other
serial devices, like modems, card readers, terminals, computers, etc.
Both cables have in common that the Sharp connector is small enough to not
cover the AC adapter socket nor the keyboard, so you can charge and type while
the Zaurus is connected.

The connector which is used for our cables is also available separately, for
the do-it-yourself user or for building special-purpose cables.
