Right, the Pixi will NOT run ANY 3D (graphics-intensive) games, in case you care about those.
Nor will it run Adobe Flash 10.1 when it's released. Nor will it be able to handle as many concurrent apps as the Pre. And the screen is 320x400 rather than the Pre's 320x480. But, it's thinner, narrower, and has an omnipresent keyboard that some say is easier to type on. That help?
