PocketPC ordered!

Well, I've had my eye on the MP3 player and PocketPC market for a while now, but there was nothing really interesting... Until now.

I've ordered the Asus MyPal A730, which comes with a 3.7" LCD touchscreen which does 640x480 (!!), it has built-in WiFi and Bluetooth, 128MB RAM and a 520MHz (!!) processor from Intel.
I also ordered a CompactFlash II card holding 1GB.

I'm really curious to find out what this thing feels like. I'm going to use it as agenda, MP3 player, portable DivX player, route-planner in my car with a GPS module, and I'll probably go online with it when I am in the vicinity of my wireless router.

Reviews have been quite positive, and the specs on paper look awesome, so I hope I'm making a good deal here.

I'll post my findings in this thread when it arrives.

€446 for the PDA and €135 for the flashcard.
That's $544 and $165 respectively.
