"these industrial handheld WinCE computers give leading edge performance"

Only if 4-16 mb RAM and Windows CE 2.11 is leading edge. :roll:

Also check Intermec.com:

This is basically the same as the Symbol device above:

Well there is one huge difference: The Symbol device loads the OS into RAM, the Intermec does not. Therefore if you bought both devices, and they both had 64 MB of RAM, then 27 MB of RAM (for PPC 2002) on the Symbol device would not be usable for your applications. But both are excellent machines. You can probably get a cheaper price on the Symbol, but you just get hosed on memory.
