Mobility Site - View Single Post - Next-Gen PDA's to rival the Axim's

The only downside to the axim, imho, (other than the sluggish performance at times) is the storage. If it had even half the storage of the average ipod, it would blow everything else out of the water. The frustration with having a device capable of replacing a portable audio/video player and doing so much more is that it is still crippled by the limited availability of storage. Even with the current sd/cf/microdrives, it would still be so much better if they would make a device like the axim in size (not over an inch thick like the mio) that had maybe a 20+gb hard drive onboard. How can it be so hard to make that available in a small package when the technology is already available to do so?
