Actually, there is, but it's one of those reference systems which no one has ever heard of. :P

I believe so. System requirements state that you'll need at least a 600MHz XScale CPU and a 2700G GPU (which only the X50v and X51v have).

Well, it's a reference system. Not really what I call "socially acceptable". ;)

I wondor how power hungry would that game be ?? I mean 600+ mhz CPUs suck battery like hell..we have already seen a good example on DELL AXIM X50V AND X51V.

It's not just the cpu that causes that though, the VGA screen, dual memory card slots and of course another CPU in the form of the 2700G with 16mb RAM all use up their fair share - a drawback of having that much power on tap.
