Sharp Zaurus SL-5600

What are the differences between the 5500 and the 5600?  I was under the
impression that there were essentially the same architecture but faster, more
memory and an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope...ummm... wrong movie. :-)


Will 5500 stuff work on the 5600 or are there big differences that keep it from
working?

Cheers!
