Sharp announced this week that developer units of their new Zaurus SL-5000D Linux-based PDA will become available early next month. Earlier this week, LinuxDevices.com founder Rick Lehrbaum had the pleasure of getting a closeup look at the new Sharp PDA, and seeing it in action. Below are a few pictures he took to help convey a sense of the look and feel of this exciting new device.

“Ooh, I love that little keyboard,” says Rick.
