I am sorry, I sold my SL-5500 before a few days. For build serial 
cable you need: connector, two negator gates (CMOS 4011, 74HCT00 ...), 
MAX232 (RS232 voltage level convertor) and DB9 serial connector. Circuit 
is a bit strange, because Zaurus have inverted TxD and RxD signals.
All parts I can buy in .cz without problems, only connector I can't.
