Zayo A600 Pocket PC for $249 after Rebate
Posted by Jason Dunn in "HARDWARE" @ 09:00 AM
"The powerful, flexible Zayo Pocket PC is designed for the active user, with 64 MB SDRAM, 32 MB Flash ROM, and class-leading 400MHz Intel XScale processor and super-bright display. And you'll have more time to enjoy your Zayo with up to 12-hours battery life from the standard lithium polymer rechargeable battery."

It's been interesting to see the prices of other Pocket PCs shift in response to entry of Dell and the release of low-end devices into the market. I think the Zayo A600 has been overlooked at this new price point - at $299, you're getting a very slim unit with a tough metal shell, top-tier graphics performance, a full 64 MB of RAM (none of that NAND voodoo), and a full 400 Mhz XScale CPU. You can check out a very thorough review if you're interested in learning more, or purchase one for $299. [Affiliate]
UPDATE: Thoughts reader byehl noticed there's also a $50 rebate, making this unit $249 after rebate. Awesome!
