Great Googley Moogley

According to c|net, Dell's forthcoming Pocket PCs will be priced at-- get this-- $199 and $299. For Pocket PC 2002 devices with XScale CPUs (300 MHz and 400 MHz, respectively), transflective screens and 32-64MB of RAM. Oh, and removable batteries. Forget what this will do to HP, this is going to kill any PalmOS device sales more expensive than the Zire. Think about this. $299 for everything the $650 iPAQ 3955 offers, or a 300MHz CPU and 32MB of RAM for $100 less than that. Oh, the humanity!
