Infosync have an article on the upcoming Xscale powered PocketPC from Toshiba. Specs for the Xscale device are supposedly:

“Toshiba e740, which comes with 64 MB RAM, has a 3,5″ 16-bit reflective TFT display and runs on Intel’s PXA250 XScale-processor at 400 MHz. In addition, the device will feature integrated WLAN or Bluetooth capabilities, and have both a CompactFlash Type II and an SD Card expansion slot. An expansion pack providing USB connectivity and video out features will also be made available, along with the option to add an extra battery to the device; direly needed, as Toshiba’s current e570 Pocket PC 2002 device is infamous for its short battery life.”

IA Zip is a user-friendly but powerful utility with many unique features that distinguish it from other Pocket PC zip tools.

• UnZip, viewing, extracting, and file management features are completely FREE for users.
• The Global Find command allows users to locate all the Zip files stored in the Pocket PC.
• When adding files to a zip archive, file filters can be used to restrict the file-type search.
• When viewing the list of individual files contained in an opened zip file, IA Zip has a specially-designed Extended view that allows the user to view detailed file attributes without having to move the horizontal scroll bar back and forth. All other standard file-browsing views (Large Icons, Small Icons, List, and Details) are also supported.

More features can be seen @ Iastyle.com
