Combjelly, Re: Yeah, I know all about the iPaq, I got one. ARM is one heck of a processor design. Intel has done well with it, if Covalis is going to sell for ~$15 a piece in quantity for the 400MHz version, Intel should do well... I agree, a very impressive design. I have an iPAQ myself and I am very pleased about its performance. I've heard rumors that Compaq will introduce a new iPAQ for the holiday season which features a 400 MHz X-Scale CPU from Intel which only consumes one third of the power of the current 203 MHz model. If the ARM stock wasn't so expensive (high P/E), I'd buy it immediately. I believe that in the long term ARM based PDAs with Windows CE will greatly gain market share over Palm (who is also rumored to switch to ARM based processors soon). Andreas
