Re: Interesting PDA: if they come, we will build it!

(see revised chart below)

we're talking double the storage and RAM, and 5x the screen.
Your $350- buys an additional 307,200 pixels.
That's only $0.00114 per pixel ... what a deal! 

What we're discussing is a pseudo lap-top replacement that fits in a big
pocket.

Speaking of features ... who wants built-in GPS too?
