Hello

Can someone tell me if the iPAQ 5550 is an SH3, MIPS of ARM processor?

I need to install a CAB file, and there is a different one for each processor.

The HP site does not mention this info. Only that it is Intel chip.

Thanks
David

ARM. (Intel XScale, which is ARM5, if you want a pedantic answer. ;))

Just curious if any PPC devices are made that use MIPS or SH3...

Anyone know?

Not any more. When PPC 2002 came out, Microsoft mandated an ARM-based chip. Before that, Casio used MIPS and HP used SH3.
