yea, thats awsome, hope its reasonably priced, if it is ill probably buy one unless the zaurus drops in price considerably. (the one that the screen flips around and turns from a palmtop to a pda, cant seem to find the model number right now)

it is not the issue of fitting all the juice of a desktop processor into the smaller form factor, that is the easy part.
The problem is power cumpsumtoin and more dangerously heat. Until companies come up with a way to cool pocket pc's while keeping the small form factor, i am afraid we wont be going much over 500mhz

POCKET PC VIRTUAL UNIVERSE OPERATING SYSTEM (PPC/VU)
Highlights for PPC/VU
Because so many users have asked for an operating system of even greater capability than Pocket PC 2004, Microsoft announces the POCKET PC Virtual Universe Operating System – PPC/VU.
Running under PPC/VU, the individual user appears to have not merely a machine of their own, but an entire universe of their own, in which they can set up and take down their own programs, datasets, system networks, personnel, and planetary systems.
Users need only specify the universe they desire, and the PPC/VU system generation program (MSGOD) does the rest. This program will reside in MSGODLIB.SYS. The minimum time for this function is 6 days of activity and 1 day of review.
In conjunction with PPC/VU, all system utilities have been replaced by one program, MSPROPHET, which will reside in MSMESSIAH.SYS. This program has no parms or need for a registry as it knows what you want to do when it is executed.
Naturally, the user must have attained a certain degree of sophistication in the data processing field if an efficient utilization of PPC/VU is to be achieved. Frequent calls to nonresident galaxies, for instance, can lead to unexpected delays in the execution of a program.
Although Microsoft, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, The United States, is working on a program to upgrade the speed of light and thus reduce the overhead of extraterrestrial and metadimensional paging, users must be careful for the present to stay within the laws of physics.
Microsoft must charge an additional fee for violations.
Hardware Configuration:
PPC/VU will run on any Pocket PC compatible system equipped with Extended WARP feature.
Planned Availability: 18 BLEAMS.
Monthly charge:
Rental is twenty million dollars per CPU nanosecond. All major credit cards accepted except Diners Club.
Testing Period:
Unlimited testing allowance for PPC/VU is available to residents of Alpha Centauri (allow 68 years cryogenic travel time).
Distribution medium: 13 CD’s or 1 reverse bit twitched DVD Disc.
Pre-Announcements:
Users should be aware the Microsoft plans to migrate all existing systems and hardware to PPC/VU as soon as Intel engineers effect one output that is (conceptually) error free. This will give us a base to develop an even more powerful operating system, target date 2006, designated "Virtual Reality". PPC/VR is planned to enable the user to migrate to totally unreal universes. To aid the user in identifying the difference between "Virtual Reality" and "Real Reality", a file containing a linear arrangement of multisensory total records of successive moments of now will be established. It’s name will be MSSYS1.est.
Marketing support:
Nationwide support of PPC/VU will be provided by the Specialist Unit of the Redmond Region 4 Market Support Center.

Makes the Dreaded Blue Screen of Death more literal doesn't it?
I have seen the Dell Axim X11 that has a 10GHz Britney Xtreme processor at the Dell Direct Store. It has a fusion nuclear reactor to power the chip. The 4GB of RAM was really nice, as is the 1TB quantum storage unit and 4096x4096x4096 3D display. I decided to take it out of the cradle and fire it up to the full 10GHz from the default 1GHz. A mini jet engine fired up and blew off all my clothes. I panicked, when all of a sudden, the X11 disappeared and the area went dark. I then realized that it was a dream.

Boy, were those early predictions wrong! Dell didn't take real advantage of the Axim's potential, and now probably never will. With the way technology has been advancing, today's Axims should be running Vista!

An "X" in my post shows I'm posting from my Axim.
