Dont get your hopes up for a 480x480.

Based on the images we've seen so far, it's more than likely going to be a 240x240 screen.

Only if they are walking backwards.

AFAIK, WM5 (Pocket PC) does 320×240, 640×480, 240×240 & 480×480. the non-square will rotate too.
Well, Palm, if you're reading to this and would like me to swap my 650 for a 670 you're going to have to go for the 480x480 or I'll be looking elsewhere. No way I'm going for >40% fewer pixels!

Another thought. In those pics the task bar and system tray take up way too much of the screen for my liking. I've never used a VGA PPC so I hope you'll excuse the neophyte question: are the task bar and system tray reduced in size proportionally on a VGA screen? So could we expect that on a 480x480 screen they'd occupy half the vertical space they'd occupy on a 240x240?

No, it would look exactly the same, which is a pity, and explains the popularity of TrueVGA solutions.

Thanks for the reply. I suppose it might explain why there are so few square-screened PPCs too. Oh well, I guess that Wizard is looking even more attractive now!
