New Zaurus Prototype, Sony Palm OS 5 Devices, Yopy 3500

dnomla writes "There is an article on PC WORLD giving a few details on the next revision of the Sharp Zaurus PDA. Sounds like the display is wider now than the current longer display and folds up. Not a whole lot of information, but at least we know there's a new model on the way. I really like the current Zaurus, can't wait to find out all the details." Also in handheld news, Lee writes "Sony just announced the first Palm OS 5 devices, available later this month. These are the first Palm OS devices to include an ARM processor! Get the scoop at Palm Infocenter or see them at Sony Style." Reader Big Mike also points out the new model of Yopy (3500) being previewed at www.yopy.at.

    Another bunch of great steps toward out ultimate goal of driving the average battery life of these devices down to under one hour.

    Remember when a Visor could work for a month on a set of AAA's without having to restrict your use to 10 minutes a day?

    Forget CPU speed, memory, apps. This one point on the Yopi specs has got me wanting more already...
