This looks like a great PDA but these are the perfect spec�s for me

CPU � Intel PXA270 running at 620MHz
Memory � 128MB of SDRAM, 64MB of ROM
Display � 3.7� or 4� VGA (480x640)
Size � The size of the 4150 or smaller
Expansion � 1 SDIO/MMC slot
Communication � Bluetooth and WiFi
OS � Pocket PC 2003 SE

CF is dead it should not be in new PDA�s, it adds bulk. MMC/SDIO cards are faster then CF cards.

I am all for getting rid of USB completely in PDA�s. You can do everything with the built in Bluetooth and WiFi. The only connector should be for power.

There are not any main stream peripherals that need more speed then Bluetooth can offer besides WiFi and that would be built in. There are always people that want to hang an external HD, CD-ROM or a VGA to there PDA. I feel that 99.9999% of the people buy a PDA because it�s compact and easy to carry. If you need a VGA connector and an external HD buy a laptop with built in Firewire and USB 2.0.

For people that need GSM/GPRS they can use a Bluetooth link to there cell phone.
