Portable computer in PPC form factor running XP?
A few months ago, there was a link to a computer maker that was developing a full-blown computer, VERY close to the size of a Pocket PC. It had a 20GB hard drive, 4" screen, running full blown Windows XP, USB, Ethernet. Does anyone remember who I am talking about?
I would really like to see what the status on this is... When I saw the post of the PPC with the built-in flip-out keyboard, I was thinking about this other device.

Was it the small IBM Slate Computer or the MetaPad? I don't have links for either one right now, but if I remember right they are the ones that look like what you are describing. Anyone have links to something about those?

Here's a company that claims to be doing something with the core:

That's what I was thinking, but it could also be the Tiqit eightythree.
