"The short GRB 061210 (Cannizzo et al. GCN 5904, Palmer et al GCN
5905) triggered the Suzaku Wideband All-sky Monitor (WAM), which
covers the energy range of 50 keV - 5 MeV, at 12:20:39 UT December 10,
2006. The duration T90 was about 0.047 second. The fluence in 100 -
1000 keV of the burst was about 2.02 (-0.33, +0.35) x 10-6
erg/cm2. Preliminary result shows that the time-averaged spectrum is
well described by a single power-law model with the photon index
1.55(-0.19,+0.22). All the quoted errors are at statistical 90%
confidence level, while systematic errors are not included.
