NO! - It uses EPOC Release 6 from Symbian (http://www.symbian.com).
Most of the existing software for Release 5 (including Opera e.g. for secure home banking and tons of free & shareware apps - some even open source) can easily be ported and there is a huge enthusiastic user base. Current PDAs that run EPOC R5 include PSIONs (Series 5(mx),Revo,7, netBook), Diamond Mako, Oregon Osaris, Ericson MC218 and R380. EPOC is rock stable (due to it's modern architecture and good memory management) and very fast even on lower spec processors like the ARM7TDMI@36MHz most current devices use.

And I say 2400 mph is the average speed, 3205 the claimed max speed.
Why not as long as you pay the bandwidth for pirateslashdot.org ;-)
