Dude! The specs on the Dell PDA are here!

The specs on the Dell Pocket PC are in if this article is correct. This device seems a bit heavier and thicker than I would have suspected, but it seems to have integrated CF and SD slots, so maybe the size isn't too far out of line. Also has integrated bluetooth. Given these specs, I don't see this as a $299 PDA, but now that ViewSonic has entered with a $300 device, the Pocket PC seems to have the mid-level to high end market covered. Sorry, no pics yet. It could launch as soon as November 5.
Weight: 6.5 oz
Thickness: 0.7" thin
Look: Silver with rubber sides, jog dial
Display: 240x320 pixel screen
Memory: 64Mb
Expansion: CF and SD slots
Connectivity: IRDA, Bluetooth and WiFI via CF slot
Music: MP3 player and universal remote control software
Energy: Removable battery (hi capacity option)
Holder: USB cradle (with spare battery charging slot)
Batteries: Batteries are 1440mwh and 3400mwh
Seems like a great power user device. If they are anything under $500, this will put all PDA makers on notice: Dell is in the PDA market! Source: Jaxbulls
