hey peeps
i have a 3yr old US-make Sharp Wizard Organizer, the OZ-30.
Suddenly its screen has turned a weird blue, and totally blind.
i think all my data is lost.

question is, would any of you have the Data Cable that comes with it so i can hook it to my pc and retrieve the data? (i dont have my cable with me here in HK, hence this request)
pm me or mail me at bichishort@hotmail.com so i can get in touch with you.

if not, know any place that repairs stuff like this? (the local Sharp service center sez since it's USmade, it's beyond them.)

gracias

Have u tried going to one of the wanchai computer centres like 298 Henessy road? You should be able to buy an unexpensive cable compatible with your organizer, some should be able to fix it too, but I would try to retrieve the data by myself first, because once you give it to them to be fixed they refuse any reponsibility about saving the data.

I've goggled for Sharp Wizard Organizer OZ-30 but there seems to be no information on it. I am most interested as Sharp was a pioneer of PDAs with the IQ-7000 (around the time of the first Apple Newton). However, the IQ series stopped after half a decade of production and since then Sharp doesn't seem to produce any PDAs. So I was interested in this new model. Is it a come back?
