Mitac Mio 168 w/GPS

Windows Mobile Hardware

Most of today’s current crop of Pocket PC’s or Windows Mobiles devices come equipped with a typical set of specifications; the ubiquitous XScale processor, and SDIO memory slot, transreflective screen, 64 Megs of ram, and in the higher end models wireless capability with either WiFi and/or Bluetooth connectivity. Some manufactures will even go out on a limb and include such innovations as 2 memory slots or a built in keyboard; slow down there cowboy those innovations are just too exciting. More...

Dell Axim X3i (Mini Review)

Windows Mobile Hardware

Following the models X5 and X3 Dell now released the new Axim X3i, Dell's first Pocket PC with both implemented Bluetooth and wireless Lan (802.11b).

The Dell Axim x3i is very lightweighted and small, its easy to even carry it in the pocket of my shirt.

If you listen to the dialog in The Thing From Another World and suspect the director, or at least the person who wrote the dialog, was probably really Hawks, you’re definitely a movie buff. More...

Cross Penabled Executive capless pen with eraser for Tablet PC

Personal Computer Hardware

For a device that is aimed at pen input, and which users need to learn to rely on the pen to get the most out of, surprisingly little attention seems to be lavished on the pens that come with tablet PCs. Most are too little, oddly shaped, poorly made, or inconvenient to use. Virtually all of them are light and insubstantial feeling. In some cases I’ve seen users put off from pen input altogether because they simply didn’t like the pen. This general lack of a quality stylus for tablet PCs caused some really enthusiastic responses when Cross announced that they would be making a high-quality stylus (actually, two styli) for the tablet. Speculation abounded on the tablet forums on what they would be like. I managed to get hold of one and I’ve been using it daily, and I can say that it is great. More...
