Toshiba e805 Photos Published on FCC Site
The FCC site has several photos of the Toshiba e805 - all are in PDF files, so they're low-res and generally nasty, but these are the first real photos of this device that I've seen. They even have pictures of the internal circuit boards for the technically-inclined.

I was looking through the user guide for and on pg. 163, it mentioned that the screen was 320x240, standard PPC res. So it doesn't sound all that impressive now.

Here's the original topic with the rumored specs http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/foru...ic.php?t=18212
At least I can see the wifi chip, and they really compacted the CF and SD slots well.
Here's the part about the "expansion pack":
Quote:
Parts and Functions of the Expansion Pack:
The Cradle Connection Port allows you to connect the Expansion Pack to the Cradle.
The RGB (Monitor) Port is a standard 15-pin RGB port for connecting an external display device such as a monitor or projector (640 x 480 64K colors @ 60Hz and 800 x 600 64K colors @ 60Hz).
The USB Port allows you to connect USB keyboard to the Pocket PC. Release Button: When pressed, the Release Button releases the Expansion Pack from the Toshiba Pocket PC e800/e805.
CRADLE CONNECTION PORT
Only IA-Presenter and IA Screen Mirror (see page 193) can output the image to the external monitor. Other applications cannot output the image to the external monitor.
Use only a Microsoft Pocket PC compatible keyboard.

So I guess the 'output' to VGA will only be through this "IA" program. And use a Pocket PC compatible keyboard? Suuuuure.

someone mentioned over on brighthand that this model doesn't make sense.
it's specs (according to the fcc pdfs) are virtually identical to the e750, except it's bigger and costs more.

Yes, very nice. It looks much better turned on and without that hideous blueish tint. 8)

That appears to be a typo:
The user manual (draft) tells you how to switch from VGA 320X240 to QVGA 320X240... :-)
Given that the display is a Sharp 4" VGA panel, its more likely that they meant VGA 640 by 480 and QVGA 320 by 240, especially since the system needs to reset to change the resolution.
Depending on pricing, I'd be very interested in this baby...

Man that is one ugly pocket PC. It looks like the PPC version of the original Palm Zire.
