CNET Reviews the ViewSonic V35 Pocket PC
"When most people think of ViewSonic, they picture monitors. However, the company has begun to branch out, first into tablet PCs and now into handhelds. For its entrance into the PDA theater, ViewSonic introduces its V35, a lightweight Pocket PC with a bright, 65,000-color screen; a swift 300MHz Intel XScale processor; and a low $299 price tag. You can find more powerful or less expensive Pocket PCs, but the ViewSonic holds its own with a balance of size, power, and affordability. Though the unit has some minor flaws, they are somewhat to be expected in the first version of a device. Overall, we think that the V35 is a bargain."

Wow, that is one of the shortest reviews I have ever read. No mention of the memory fiasco... just as well - it is still a good device.

From the 'features' tab:

With 36.45MB of available RAM, the V35 has slightly more memory than most 300MHz Pocket PCs but considerably less than the 64MB found in most high-end models.

Looks like they hid it, but they addressed it (at least from a neutral standpoint, not judging Viewsonic).
