HI Chris 

It is highly unlikely that Sharp NZ will take on the Zaurus. The product
has been removed from the Australian market due to a very very slow sell
through. The retail on the product is around the $1500 - $2000 mark and
a lot of support is also needed. In order for it to be worth while for
Sharp NZ a min. 1000 units would need to sold before introduction. 

Kind Regards

Catherine Meo 
Sharp NZ.

The price seems a bit step when Jamie said:-

Interesting!
