wake me when they have nice screens

320x240 just doesn't cut it. That was nice in 2000. There are competing products on the market with literally four times the pixels.

One feature I am happy to see is being able to change from portrait to landscape on the fly.

Thats whats great about the iPaq, you don't need to use PPC. Most iPaq owners I know replace PPC with linux as soon as they buy them. handhelds.org tends to be the site of choice for most people I know.

"Most iPaq owners I know" probably restricts the sample population upon which you base your statement to a pretty select geekish cohort. Would general users be inclined to install a new, better OS, or would they stick to the PPC that comes with the device?
