The Sharp Zaurus SL-5500 Linux-based PDA can be purchased for just under $200 from the Home Shopping Network, according to a short article at Dealnews.com. With an HSN 15% coupon, this brings the price down to just under $170.

This deal seems likely to be related to the recent announcement that the newer model, the SL-5600, has begun shipping.
