How is integration with outlook?
Never tried Outlook

How is battery life? (with or without the Wifi card, and an SD card 
installed?)
This is the part that sux. The Zaurus is a great PDA IMHO, but the 
battery life is terrible. Especially when you throw in a CF wireless 
card. The wireless works great, but it sucks down the battery even faster.

How hackable is it? (geek quotient)
I would say it is pretty hackable. Sharp was pretty open in giving user 
information about how to develop apps in QT and Java for the Zaurus. 
There was even a group who created an alternate Linux distro for the 
Zaurus (Search for Opie on Source Forge). You can also find tons of your 
favorite SW on the web for the Z. I was able to get SSH installed, which 
allowed mew to SSH/Tunnel into our corporate LAN, and mount NFS 
filesystems and chat through IRC with fellow employees. I would still 
use mine a lot more, if the battery lasted longer

Unix IS user friendly - it's just picky about it's friends.
