And there was me thinking the market was finally up to ditching the x86 millstone.
Not only is the x86 not going away... it (well x86-64) looks set to dominate and replace all other architectures in the not too distant future. The advantages of a common ISA are just too great.
Plus embedded Windows... pure crap. PalmOS has always been gazillion times more user-friendly.
Windows Mobile isn't my choice... I used to have an Old HP 4150 iPAQ... which was WinCE powered... not that much fun.
So one doesn't need to use it any more... I use MacOSX on my PDA :-)
No, this is a traditional turn in the wrong direction.
Come on ppl! We are here on Amiga.org, a site dedicated to a machine ahead of it's time, in terms of getting the max out of hard- and software, and dedication to user friendliness (whether the user is a die-hard programmer, or someone who uses the computer for the first time).
Be an Amigan, save your pennies/efforts, and just avoid this.
But this makes more powerful hardware cheaper and smaller... these are both attributes which the Amiga used to embrace?! We should embrace them and not fear them. :-)
