I thought some of the group would be interested in this. It's like the
fabled ITSY but runs on a better RISC chip. It's not cheap, though --
~$700. -Chris

Saw this on LinuxToday, from AllLinuxDevices:

http://alllinuxdevices.com/news_story.php3?ltsn=2001-10-09-001-03-PL-HH

Which links to:  http://www.azpower.com/mylinux/

It's the MyLinux Pocket Linux Workstation, now taking pre-orders, at
$699 each.  Specs from the site:

   * 200 MHz Hitachi SuperH RISC Engine
   * Sharp 3.9" Active Matrix HR-TFT LCD
   * Epson 1376 Graphics Controller
   * 128MB Micron PC-133 SDRAM
   * 64MB Intel StrataFlash

But that's not the half of it.  It's also got two PCMCIA slots,
RS-232, RS-485, IrDA, audio, rechargeable battery, and more, in
roughly a 3.5" HD formfactor.  No word on battery life or weight that
I noticed.

Frankly, it seems pretty kickass to me.  But, I just pledged to get an
RS-170 kit, and will later need to have Don build it into a pair of
prescription sunglasses on my behalf, so I'm out of the running for
one of these.  ;)
