Hello,
I'm considering buying a handheld so I can write an article about
handheld BSD. The hpcmips port appears to be what I want, but the web
page left me with a few very very basic questions. Like any wannabe
journalist, I have absolutely no clue what I'm getting myself into.
First, I keep seeing references to a WinCE loader. Does this port
boot from WinCE? Does that mean it runs "on top of" CE?
What's a decent model to buy? My criteria are:
*self-contained; that means a keyboard (unless you've hacked
handwriting recognition).
*Network support (pc card is fine)
*Small ("cool" factor is important in publishing)
X would be nice, but definitely secondary to the above three.
Thanks for any advice,
Michael
