New pdaXrom will include support for Quake 3 and IE
« on: April 01, 2004, 05:26:32 am »
The next upcomming pdaXrom will take a whole new aproach to the pda idea - it features the best of all computer worlds packed into one small machine. We have setup a \"emulation\" enviroment that lets you run Windows and Linux software at the same time in real time. That way you can run Internet Explorer, Office suite and more.

We will keep posting updates when the we have more news, if you would like more info please visit http://pdaxrom.org/.

you can do both of those now....
I think the only modification would be instead of
\"frames per second\" it would be \"seconds per frame\"

I also thought they were planning a hardware mod to swap the current puny ATi acceleration hardware for a proper ATi Radeon 9800 board, oh and add a fuel cell to allow it to run for more than 5 minutes.

ya, a fuel cell... just what we need.. :-) for wifi.
plugging in a wifi to the zaurus makes the battery meter work like a car\'s RPM gauge!

i believe that IE can be run on the Zaurus - something like:

qemu-i386 wine \"/mnt/card/winefakedrives/c/Program Files/Internet Explorer/system32/iexplore.exe\"

of course I don\'t think its worth the hassle.
