I already have a PalmV PDA with PalmOS 3.5. I never use it. I practically have absolutely no need for an organizer. Yet, I wanna buy a new one. That geek gene in me (that my mother unsuccessfully tried to kill over the years) what really wants is a "truly mobile PC" that just isn't a laptop. So, for the last few days I was shopping around the Internet for a new PDA (preferably a PocketPC this time) that would fit the kind of thing I am looking for. I was... horrified to find out that what I need isn't... invented yet.

Actually, that Flipstart PC (http://flipstartpc.com/) is very close to what I want (thanks for the link Dave). It runs Windows XP PRO so it runs most needed apps and it has a very decent resolution. The only thing that it doesn't have though is a camcorder/webcamera, an extra USB slot, and a good battery life. Plus, it looks more like a very small laptop rather than a PDA (no touchscreen?) and it will probably going to be ridicoulously expensive.
Nevertheless, this FlipStart PC is the closest thing found today to the product I described in the article.
