"In five years' time, more Windows CE devices will be shipping than Windows PCs. So reckons PC and PDA market researcher eTForecasts.

So while 2002 saw 126 million PC shipments worldwide and nine million WinCE device shipments, come 2008 and 190-200 million PCs will ship compared to 200-220 million WinCE devices, according to eTForecasts' numbers. "

Palm will not fall, silly! It is a much better OS, and OS6 will only improve upon it. I sold (I quit BB, btw ;)), I sold MANY more palms (Sonys, actually) than PPC.

if PS goes up for sale, you can be guaranteed Sony will pick it up, and then we will see the real magic fly.

It only makes sense that Pocket pcs were the big sellers for a while, but with the release of the Tungston and the NZ-90, the tables are turning once more. Pocket pcs only had the lead early on for their superior multimedia capablities, but now look at the cheaper, simpler devices fly off the shelf!:D

The Tungsten is what really caught my eye. I love the design of it and the option to get it with a QWERTY keyboard.

And as for me, I'm getting the NZ90, even though I'm spending nearly a grand on it, I'm really getting a world class device that has a far greater library of software than any pocket pcs do.
