Here is a
listing of current mobile processors. Most can be found in some
device, others are just there and not being used. If there is one I
don't have that you want to see here, email dave@davespda.com.
If you are interested in
processor and speed issues of Pocket PC's, read Chris De Herrera's
article, "Are
Pocket PC's Starving."
