Call it wicked,
but am I the only one who thinks Sony is hedging their PDA bet by developing a PDA based on Xscale? In case when Palm Inc. starts acting up seing their PDA sales suffer because of Sony, they will have a big stick to wave. (we'll put PPC OS on our product)
Consider this, The first rumor was moto's MX1, and what's more I don't think Xscale receives Palm OS certification before the other chips. But here we are, the first OS5.0 released. Maybe Palm Inc. wants to prove that the OS5.0 can be adopted quickly on various differing brand. But if so, they sure do a shoddy job with the Tungsten being 2 months late. (That's 1/4 of a PDA shelf life)
It would be really funny, if Sony start offering a line of product with 2 OS options.
