Review: The New Casio Pocket PC E-200

It has a 206mhz strong arm, reflective screen and a replacable rechargeable battery. In my opionion it looks very cool and seems like it could do some damage to the IPAQ's sales. On a side note it should run linux no problem."
This thing will be perfect for Embedded XP! The only question left is where can I buy one?
If nothing else, there's some serious geek factor involved. Take, for instance:
Boy1 : "My Dad works with a 512 machine dual alpha 833 cluster"
Boy2 : "Big deal. My Dad can kick your dad's butt at Quake"
Boy1 (miffed): "Well, my mom drives a 2003 Lexus with built-in GPS, built-in electronic stun theft protection, built-in dog_pees_on_tire() protection, built in adaptive AI that reminds her to pick milk up from the store and it even talks in a deep sexy man's voice when Dad's not around."
Boy2 : "So what, my Mom can cook."
Boy1 (really miffed): "Ah Ha, let me see your PDA..." (pause as he boots up Quake) "Thought so, yours only does 6726 fps. Mine does 6731 fps."
Boy2 : "DADDY!!!!! I WANT A NEW PDA!!!!"
See.... And tell me that's not how 99% of geeks think about new hardware. I won't even mention the speed of my PDA....
i doubt severely that you have a girlfriend with such a shitty sense of humor
I just talked to someone claiming to be a chick on IRC and I want to show off.
