This Pocket PC Brought To You Courtesy of Eddie Haskell

Rumor has it that Dell is gearing up to offer a Pocket PC. They're reportedly in negotions with Asian manufacturer Compal to buy 1.5 million new devices to be sold under the Dell brand. I've heard wild rumors on this one from Dell shooting for the sub-$300 price point to readying a Pocket PC Phone Edition device. We'll know when we see it, I guess, and we'll have that annoying Dell guy waving the devices in our faces. The good news is someone with the requisite marketing clout will finally be able to go toe to toe with HPaq.
