::sigh:: now if it would have been CDMA I would have been in love! This is the type of device that i really went, but VZW will never offer something like this.  even if they did they would cripple the heck outsof it.
Oh well, guess I will keep drooling...

What's that I see....128mb of ROM and 64mb of RAM. Can this device actually work with this memory configuration? There were a few people here who said this device NEEDED 128mb of RAM?? <sarcasm>

Yeah, reversing, I felt was good idea, but cutting RAM seems kind of dumb.

Okay.... :huh: I'm still working on the name. It makes Clie seem like a cool name by comparison.
It's like they pulled out six scrabble pieces and formed the name from that... Hmmmm. R, J, S, A, A, J. Okey dokey, people, let's get a name out of this. Winner gets a Sony UXH-9614axtW!
Sigh, unless the J's are supposed to sound like Y?
:roll:

If I understand WM5 review articles correctly, unlike older versions of PocketPC OS, under WM5 all installed programs will go to flash ROM and RAM are only used for programs running at the time (kindof like PC with ROM=PC's harddisk and RAM=PC's RAM). That's probably the reason why all these new devices are coming out with 128MB ROM and 64MB RAM.
