FIC Gets Approval From FCC For New Pocket PC
FIC, an ODM who rarely makes public headlines in the market, has received FCC approval for a new Pocket PC with both CF and SD slots.
![](http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/2003/parekh-20040714-FICPDA.jpg)
It's not clear what all the specs are; the manual suggests a 400MHz PDA with 64MB of RAM and 1250mAh battery, but lists a Wi-Fi "option". Previous PDAs manufactured by FIC have had Bluetooth and dual-wireless setups. I assume that they're not going to sell this Pocket PC under their own name, either, instead shopping for an OEM to resell and support it.

Well at least it has a jog dial! The three led's tend to make me think it has charge, BT and WIFI indicators? What do you think???

That's exactlywhat I thought! It looks a lot like the low-end Palms!
Perhaps this will be marketed as a low-end, inexpensive PPC... :?:

It looks cute in a Zire like way. Maybe a bit cheap (and rugged because of it)?
