Looks like finally a step forward for PDAs. Yay!

Now that is insane. I wonder how much it will cost?

Not one but TWO cameras. 2 GB of internal flash. Tri-band phone. FM tuner. Wifi+Bluetooth. TV-out. Sweet!

Spiffy yes, but the battery life is probably going to make people cry.

I don't know. Most of the hardware isn't used at the same time. Using it as a "normal" Pocket PC it should have equivalent life to existing devices.

I think the GoForce 5500 is the most interesting part of this device. Other PocketPCs had two cameras before and memory can be extened easily via SD/CF cards, but this is the first time (to my knowledge) that there is a publicly available PocketPC with pixel shader support.

I doubt though that this will be standard soon. There have been 3D chips for embedded devices for a long time and only very few PocketPCs ever had hardware 3D support...
