No, in fact except www.expansys.fr , a (very) raw french translation of 
www.expansys.com that sells zaurii online, there is no way to buy a 
Zaurus Here (France). I got mine from Ebay USA (pretty epic story).

I tried a Friend's Palm Titanium Stylus. It's 3-4 millimeters too long 
put, apart from that seems to lock pretty well.

Are you sure, I have a USA Zaurus 5500, and the adaptator is 110/220. 
I've been using it for month on 220v. No problems at all. As far as I 
know, the 5500 and the sl760 have the same power adaptator (can anyone 
confirm/deny ?)
