According to a blog at Jeff Kirvin’s Writing On Your Palm Casio is discontinuing their E series Pocket PC in the United States. It is a shame too. Casio was so close to getting it right but just never developed that killer PDA. The E-115/125 was the ultimate in quality control, had a fantastic screen and built in Compact Flash but was simply too large to be considered pocketable by most people. The E-200 got the StrongARM processor and added Secure Digital to the package, but was plagued with quality control problems and its style was… uhm… unique. As a result, Casio has recently been lumped in the “other” category of most market share reports as its market share declined below numbers most industry watchers cared about.
