Sweet competition for the Axim at that price.
Palm after all still seems to have the ability to fight back.
The second half of this year is gonna be mighty intresting, especially now that it seems that most Palm OS handhelds are switching to 320on320 screens with 16 bit colour while PPC´s remain stuck with quarter VGA.
More choice, more fun.

Yup, hardware wise it's not too bad. Unfortunately it will be running Palm OS. I will still like to know how they accomplished a Quicktime player. |
easy, they wrote one
or apple wrote one for them
.
Of course their hardware is fully capable of decoding it... infact the OMAP processor w/ the DSP chip is one heck of a video beast. I guess quicktime is for the video.
I have a bunch of quiktime stuff, and would love a player too. Hopefully it's not something like a motion jpeg quicktime, since that's what the camera probably record in.
Anyway, this does seem to be one nice device for the consumer market.
