Sharp's PDAs going back to Japan, tail between legs

Sharp, say it ain't so! First Sony, then Toshiba, now Sharp has announced plans to withdraw its PDA business from the US market, and no sooner than announcing their hot new PDA handheld, too. It's not like we actually expected to get to play with the new Zaurus SL-C3000 or anything, but still, this is pretty rough up in here. Apparently, just like with Sony, we can expect a liquidation of their remaining SL-6000 units while they pack their bags and head for friendlier climes where they needn't constantly look over their shoulders for Treo 650s and BlackBerrys.

A few days ago ITmedia reported that Sharp denied the rumor, and said they're keeping the Zaurus in the US for both personal and enterprise sales :P
