Can somebody please ID the processor used in the Palm Pilot? I believe its a Power PC 401, but I don't have confirmation. Couldn't get it off the 3Com website. Can anybody help me out?

Motorola Dragonball rings a bell, but I'm not sure.

Blank Paterson wonders " Can somebody please ID the processor used in the Palm Pilot? I believe its a Power PC 401...."

Nope. As David said, it's the Motorola Dragonball, which is also called the 68328.
