Asus MyPal A620BT vs. A716

PLease stick to the topic. For now the 730 is still unrealized until its release. For all I know, they could come out next year. The A620 and A716 are here, NOW. I can wait, but like buying a computer, i could wait forever for new tech. IMHO, its best to buy the most for what you can afford right now, and right now, its the A620 or A716. Plus, the mockup layout of the buttons on the 730 dont look awesome for gaming.

BTW, are there pics of the A620 or A716 in someone's hand? I wanna see how big they really are.

I really want a handheld to replace my laptop while I'm on the road.

thanks tomdon for the picture! i wouldnt mind luggin that thing around. im guessing the A716 is a tad bit bigger.

so now im undecided between the A716 and the Tapwave Zaurus2. I'm really smitten on the analog gaming features. The screen is also bigger with dedicated gpu for gamin and faster processor. The negative I see for this thing include no CF slot, no WiFi, and the video isnt as great as PPC (from what I've researched).

Any other points I'm missin?

CPU is slower than A716, the analog isn't all sweet, it tends to bug up a lot.

The hardware for gaming is great, but the games out for it aren't that great for the most part. PPC has more emulators and good games.
